I understand the law.

my original point was the law is unnecessary and wasteful.

I said the law was unnecessary and wasteful.

I did not say I would break the current law.

The tag doesn't bother me on the step bumper on my pickup...but I hate it on the rear of my motorcycle.

boats have a simple 2" x 3" registration sticker...why not cars & motorcycles?

metal plates made sense when cars were mostly steel, and resources & labor was cheap and abundant...and there were not nearly as many vehicles on the road.

now that cars are a high percentage of plastic....why the metal plate?

not only do you need to buy the metal plate...now, you have to buy a sticker for the metal plate each year.

fu@kin government hosing us again.

there is simply ZERO reason for a metal plate...and the law enforcement argument is lame...

as is the camera at intersections...just another money making scheme for the government.

Personal plates are a little too much "Look at me" for my tastes. But WGAF what I like, it's your ride.
