While sitting in
traffic you may noticed the number of expired license plate stickers
you see? I have noticed that, some people don't notice or care
that they are driving a vehicle where the sticker on the plates have
expired. As a driver it is your responsibility to ensure that your
license plate is up to date. I was sitting in a traffic jam and the
vehicle in front of us had a sticker for Jan14 and it was May 14 so
that was a truly expired plate sticker.
The other thing
you notice is that at least in Ontario your sticker for a personal
vehicle is suppose to be in the upper right hand corner of the
plate. I think I have seen stickers in every area of the plate which
is a ticketable offense. It must be interesting when these vehicles
are pulled over by police, how do you explain why the sticker isn't
in the location it is suppose to be.
Back plates with
no stickers and stickers on front plates of a car. In Ontario, the
sticker is to be on the back plate. This makes me wonder if the
license plates really belong to the vehicle they are currently on.
Another thing to
notice is the condition of the back license plate on vehicles. Some
plates look like they have seen really bad days but the front plate
is in mint condition. It really makes you wonder if people are
tampering with their license plates making them hard to read from
behind. This is an issue when you are trying to report a vehicle for
breaking the law or even for some of the toll highways to read the
license plates.
The license plate
is a means of identifying the vehicle so make sure it is in good
condition.
