Dont talk about cops like that here. Many people want to be police officers, myself included. Its a Maryland State law. They didnt make the rules, theyre just enforcing them.

I've been pulled over a few times for no rear tag lights, but it's always been after midnight on weekends when they're really checking to see if I'm drunk. No tickets for it yet.

And if i do get an inspection ticket for it, cant i just put little tires on to have it reinspected?

It would also give me an excuse to buy BW Flattys. Darn.

Oh, good point Jimmy.

But it's negated by the fact that people do get pulled over for it, however rare that may be. You can't prove a negative.

My existence prevents nuclear war because no nation has launched one in the time that I've been alive.

Bottom line is that it's a risk. Personally, I'd take it again except that I got tired of my tires throwing **** on me and my windshield.
