Default Re: Expired Car Tags

My 2 experiences in both cases were with my personal car. Pulled over by cops twice, and both times I legitimately didn't know that my tags were expired, so I wasn't just playing dumb.

First time, the cop asked me if I had moved in the last year, which I had, and he just gave me a warning ticket. I had to go to the courthouse and pay the standard tax within a month or the warning ticket became real.

Second time, cop gave me a ticket, and I had to pay a fine, in addition to paying the regular tax.

If the police didn't give you a ticket, then you probably just have to pay the standard amount for renewing your tags with no late penalty.
