we are still supposed to have it but apparently they messed up the part where we could be fined for it. So take your chances if you will. I hear cops are still writing tickets and letting the courts deal with it.
cops use things like lic plate and inspection stickers to pull you over, because chances are if they can get one thing on you they can get a few more.
