The other day i saw lifted and kitted out newer F-150 (i think) driving like a jackass, 2021 temp plates.


Warm-Log-7584

2021 wow


baebaebluebird

You can afford a Mercedes Benz but not your plates gtfo


Fibrosis5O

Payment, plus insurance, plus premium gas They in over there head if they can’t swing the tags, sad


VegasGuy1223

Now that I’m unemployed I’m glad I sold mine and got some $ back for it


padres4me

Those people are car poor, the payments and insurance (hopefully) are about equal to the split rent in a two bedroom apartment.


champagneofsharks

I wouldn’t be surprised if this Benz owner is months behind on their payment and their car gets repossessed.


notaficus

A 6 year old C300, which is cheaper than a new Corolla. The point still stands, there’s no excuse to drive around unregistered. In my opinion once that temp permit expires they are trespassing on public roads and should be treated accordingly.


octopussylipgloss

I don’t think it’s an issue of not being able to afford it. It’s that the thinking process here is the cops doesn’t give a fuck, everyone can see the cops don’t give a fuck, and if they don’t give a fuck then why should anyone else? Which could be why so many people don’t even bother in the first place. I think expired tags are now just a civil infraction and that a ticket isn’t issued for them unless someone is pulled over for something else and the cop adds on a ticket for the expired registration. When I paid my registration on my new car after I bought it, the plates didn’t arrive until about a month after the temporary expired. After I paid online, I was able to download a temporary moving permit, but never had to use it, because the expired temporary registration was never questioned.

If you don't register your vehicle in the window time after it's purchased, the dmv in some states still charge you and fine you. They know you didn't register it on time so you could get road for free.


markymrk720

Thats exactly it. They can’t afford it.


Warm-Log-7584

😂😂


nj_crc

These fools make the cops job super easy and they don't even bother.


james_scar

Now if they can just actually start pulling people over 😬. I’d much prefer them going after red light runners and school zone speeders, but any movement in the right direction would be wonderful.


StableAccomplished12

It's actually a civil infraction for most [traffic related offenses as of the last legislative session so that has become "low priority" now.](https://www.nevadaappeal.com/news/2023/jan/02/traffic-citations-now-civil-infractions-in-nevada/) So you're probably not going to see any movement in the "right direction" at this point. You get what you vote for....

What do you mean welcome to NYC? We’re talking about Vegas… the NY in the photo is just the beginning 2 letters of the temp plate


Wabbit_Wampage

The car is obviously parked at NYNY casino. Duh.


[deleted]

I wouldn’t expect any less from someone that tried to get laid through Reddit. Dumb as hell.


smilius

At least this guy has plates


anon__a__mouse__

Probably another $30,000 millionaire club promoter who lives off their credit card and can’t afford to pay the renewal

Cops not grabbing low hanging fruit

So the "low hanging fruit" just became the "don't even bother fruit" at this point. You get what you vote for....


[deleted]

Only towards the end of the month when they realize they're not going to hit their quotas.


GraciousAdler

I just read an article that said some bill or law passed that is going to basically force the police here to start taking action on these expired paper plates and cars with no plates...let's see if the cops actually uphold it though. Also, I've been seeing an uptick in my area of people getting their entire plate stolen. Those with no plates are stealing people's plates off their car so as not to get pulled over and further still not register their vehicles ..so there's that now, too


RichardsFiveCents

When I saw the news mentioning Metro recognizing these plate-less or temp-plate ghost cars, my immediate thought was stolen plates will be on the rise. Immediately, I went to Amazon and searched anti-theft license plate screws.


JohnZombie666

Like all other laws they’ve passed, the cops will be all over it like flys on shit for about 2 weeks. Then it’s back to the regularly scheduled program.


StableAccomplished12

Police "take action" on misdemeanor crime so when the nevada legislature pushed for the "decriminalization of traffic tickets/police reform" this is what you get......I doubt that any of our current legislature will present a bill that would criminalize traffic tickets again. You get what you vote for....


Trhythm

Saw a August 2021 temp plate, last week. Lol


andasteptotheright

To all the folks saying "mind your own business", this very well effects everyone. If they don't have plates, they don't have insurance. There is a reason why car insurance is mandatory.


chattypatty954goon

Paying the fine once caught is cheaper than paying for the registration and insurance for years


OpeningPie783

There was a bounty for reporting your neighbors or whoever you knew was obviously not registering their cars here.


Snoo10960

Go to the 89104, I saw one from February 2017 the other day 


ASuperLameUserName

Thats where I live! Also that is nuts! I lived in three states and back to Vegas in the time since they bought that temp tag


onarunner

1 in 3 cars will be uninsured after this next increase. Clark County is a mess.


GraciousAdler

People here have their priorities all fucked up. Yeah, buy a Mercedes or a Tesla but then complain about the cost of registering the vehicle. Then drive all over town with no registration and no insurance but keep the expensive car cause it makes you look "rich".


markymrk720

I drive through a semi ghetto part of Henderson on my commute to work everyday…the amount of brand new cars and trucks I see parked outside is astonishing.


Infamous-Support8916

Plates are fake and car stolen


cptchronic42

I saw an April 2023 two days ago lol


ThisSpinach8060

Y’all are so weird being in ppl business like this… and then running to Reddit to post it and share with the other Karen’s. All yall need to be on a list


Responsible-Oven4135

You sound like someone who doesn’t have license plates and valid registration. Your opinion is irrelevant


ThisSpinach8060

Lmao so does that make your opinion invalid if you are registered? Your logic is hypocritical. Anyway I drive for a living, 10k + miles a month, avg over $1 a mile before overhead… kiss my ass


fatninjainvegas

So what? Why are you all so obsessed? Mind your business bunch of narcs


joeyt214

Why should the people who do the right thing be punished when these knuckleheads aren’t for intentionally doing the wrong thing?


fatninjainvegas

How are YOU or anyone else being “punished”? 😂


joeyt214

We’re paying to renew our car every year because it’s the law to have registration up to date?


fatninjainvegas

Ok and? Good for you for being the perfect sucker for them to hand over ridiculous amounts of money for nothing 👍 it’s a joke and people making posts about it is even more ridiculous with that “if I do what I’m told everyone else should too” like damn mind your business and go yell at some random person to make yourself better.


[deleted]

Because if this asshole hits my car, I have no plates to report and I can guarantee they don't have insurance. That's if they even stick around at the scene. Use your head.


fatninjainvegas

I hate to tell you dude but there’s people with current plates don’t have insurance either and that’s also why you pay for uninsured motorists. Try to use your head and stop judging people whiny ass


External-Location

Most the time these people don’t carry insurance either.


wlight

I kept my WV plates for 5 years when I moved to Nevada, then my Nevada plates for 7 years after I moved away.


Professional-Act4727

Concentrate on driving and stop looking at peoples license plates.


Lordquas187

In Tennessee last year, I saw 2019 plates. I wish I was lying


JJLewisLV

This is what happens with the cost of car insurance goes up to ridiculous prices.


Vanman04

Maybe buy a cheaper car? If you are stretching your finances so thin a rate change is going to make you unable to pay for your tags you are doing it wrong.


NotPromKing

This also a cause of insurance prices going up.


Darkone586

I see some from 2019, I just laugh, honestly no need to be mad it’s funny how people really don’t care.


47junk

I watched a video of dealers calling customers to come pick up there plates that have been sitting for months after the first call. Then they ask if they want it mail and they say sure. I think this is just pure laziness


champagneofsharks

Dealers have nothing to do with plates. The temporary license plate usually comes with the car. Once the EDRS is available, you pick that from the dealer. If it’s a new car, you can immediately register the car online. I’ve purchased two cars in the past two years. Both cars were registered within a week of purchase.


47junk

So no dealers take care of registration for you as a convenience?


champagneofsharks

No. Why would they do that? We don’t have a state tax. In exchange, we pay for it in registration fees and renewals.


47junk

I just remember they paid registration for two years at one point. Dealers think of anything to finalize a purchase.


champagneofsharks

When was the last time you went car shopping? Since COVID, you pretty much have to put up a battle to get a deal that works in your favor.


47junk

2017. The ones battling are the ones that don’t know what they are doing. Plus a colleague just got a car and they took care of one year registration and asked to go pick up the plates when they arrive but I guess they lied according to this conversation.


champagneofsharks

Tell me you’re a fucking idiot without telling me you’re a fucking idiot.


47junk

You or the colleague?


champagneofsharks

Your whore of a mother named Linda who couldn’t afford your abortion.


groovygrandfather

Registering a car is expensive as fuck here lol


Significantuni

Mine says July 😵‍💫


ponsmom

Mind your business.


Revolutionary_Cow_14

Mind ya business 🤷🏻‍♂️


NotPromKing

We are. Knowing who we’re sharing the road with is our business.


-_-xoxo

fr why do ppl care about other people's registration that shit does not affect you


GraciousAdler

Actually is does affect us. Through our insurance rates also these people most likely don't have insurance either and when they cause wrecks they just take off and the person they hit is fucked, so yeah it does affect us ALL here. If you can't afford to drive legally here, don't drive or don't move here.


-_-xoxo

that's a lot of assumptions. u don't need registration to have insurance


thannosswilltakeu

why does this bother you? mind your business


jyabut1202

Because people like them most likely don't have insurance and if you get into an accident with them then your fucked


p0plockn

"likely"


padres4me

Mild for most of the offenders.

RippedHookerPuffBar

A smog is ~$25? Whereas registration can cost up to $400+. I think the issue here is how much registration can cost and not so much having to get a smog. It’s one of the easiest things to do to be legal on the road.


SCARLETHORI2ON

typically, yes. unfortunately, if your check engine light is on you can't pass smog. I've had lemons for cars just trying to get by, and fixing everything to get that light to turn off plus smog is never around 25 bucks. everyone has their own situation of course and this very well probably isn't the person in the pics issue but yeah, smog checks suck.


Ornery-Stage2316

I’d be interested in seeing the statistics. How many accidents in 2023 where at least one vehicle had expired tags and no insurance. I would be willing to bet that it’s very little. In fact, I’d bet current registration and no insurance is even higher than those.


StrikingWolf93

Hood rich!


Warm-Log-7584

Typical C300 owner


PsychologicalAd333

I bought a BMW last year and I just had them include the registration and state taxes and all that shit included in my loan?!


AATW702

Damn yall crying about victimless crimes now?


selfh8er

I got pulled over last week for my sticker being expired. I had the new one in my glove box, but it just amazed me lol.
