My entire adult life, I’ve heard various people tell me that I need to score my tabs after putting them on “so no one can steal them”. I’ve known many people like myself that find this idea absurd, and don’t bother with scoring. How did this idea become mainstream advice?
One time, I had my expired plates stolen off a car I owned. The plates expired many years ago, the car died and sat quite a few years before I was able to get rid of it. What is someone doing with expired plates? The car next to it had valid plates. How dumb are people???
Decorate the inside of their barn with them!
Fix a rust hole in a shitburger car. Though street signs work better.
Tell the kids long stories all about the cool (or not) car they used to be on!
Stick em on a crime car. That way, if someone writes down the Tag, any investigation will go nowhere since they are expired.
Or to the previous owner, since that information doesn’t just disappear after expiring.
When you do crime you need a different plate. Expired is dumb but at least its not registered to the criminal.
Add new fake stickers pretty easily. Details like that are often overlooked by cops unless they have a real reason to look further. Can get pretty far without plates, so just a cursory glance will pass.
Haha my Oma did this one year, as the sticker came off almost immediately, and the registry wouldn’t replace it for her
