The Tow Files: One Steaming Dump

[DGoddessChardonnay]

Well, when you have a suspended registration and can't get a real tag what else was she supposed to do?

Please, DON'T answer that!

One could do what some neighbors of mine did: attach a dead tag onto their vehicle, or write the license plate number in sharpie on a piece of cardboard and tape it inside their back windshield. Take your pick.

Of course that second idea is more noticable than the first option . . . . guarantee you Officer Friendly won't be so friendly if he came across that.

We've towed people who've tried it.....

I've never understood why people bother it. As soon as a cop sees it you're toast.

And it stands out like a neon sign to boot!

Now using a dead tag will work for a while - but if you get pulled over and the cop runs your tags odds are you're going downtown with him...

Bonus points if you're doing this AND have no valid license (such as the neighbor in question having suspended license due to DWI and her brother had only one eye, so he could not have license to begin with.)

MOTY material right there. Even worse was her then 11 year old son was in the car with her when she got pulled. Her mother had to be called to come get him (the son.)

LOL I bought a car from a guy off of ebay in PA.
Put "in transit" on a paper on the back window and drove back to VA like that.
