why you should slice a "X" over your license plate tags IF ... you are in area where you are concerned about your license plate tag (ie the month and year stickers) getting pulled off by thieves (who for one reason or another cannot renew their registration so they pull off current tags from other vehicles and put them on their own). I learned this the hard way, having allowed my year stickers to pile up upon one another year after year, and then one day I got pulled over by a police officer and he said "Your tag is expired" . I said what ?! I knew they weren't because I put the stickers on dutifully year after year. But i got out and looked and sure enough, the 26 tag was gone. Fortunately, they can still call it in and verify and he did and he let me go. I suppose they could still give you a fix-it ticket but he didn't. THen I found out it helps to slice an X in the sticker with a razor blade so that thieves can't pull it off in one piece. That's a helpful hint from me to you.
