I'm in GA and I *despise* how poorly the state handles vehicle registrations. Paper tags all over the place, NO FRONT PLATES (which, with cameras in vehicles now identifying oncoming hit-and-runners is a MUST), expensive insurance and only half the drivers insured. I've had four hit and run accidents on my vehicle in 5 years - 3 times when my vehicle was parked and unoccupied. Every last one of them ran. I was in my car when the fourth person hit me and I called 911 while chasing them. 911 told me to stop and would not lift a finger.

In California we went from only needing the DMV printout taped to the front window, and you rarely saw cars without plates, to seemingly 1 out of every 5 or 6 cars having a paper plate and I can not believe that we have had that many auto sales to represent that. Honestly the ONLY reason I believe the state moved to paper plates is to get extra toll revenue on bridges and what not. Why cars do not start out with real plates is beyond me, how much does a plate cost? ultimately maybe $15 to stamp and paint one? and I feel like that's a high estimate, yet auto dealers are against this tiny cost? But they'll sure as hell make sure to charge you "licensing fees" when you buy a new car.
One thing I have also noticed as a Californian is that fake paper plates are also making our way into our streets. I have seen the paper plates that they issue at the dealer and the ones that were purchased at auction, but there are some cars that have extensive damage that I have seen with fake paper plates that has a permanent license plate number format (1SAM123) or is not the correct license plate format, which is supposed to be AA00A00 but could be some random 7 digits. But even if the plates aren't fake, some people never even bother switching out the paper plates and have also gone as far as to even slapping on their registration stickers on the paper plates (yes, you read that right), Unlike Texas, California embosses their license plates which I'm assuming is harder to produce and a bit more expensive compared to Texas, which are flat, printed straight onto the aluminum roll and probably cheaper to produce. They're probably flimsier so it may bend or fade a lot faster compared to its embossed counterpart, which is why California still embosses their plates.
@@moregreaterladashcam8829 LoL putting registration stickers right on the paper plate, man if that's not an opportunity worth of making a meme I don't know what is.
Where I lived for 30 years, plate is issued to a person, then a car is listed for it. You trade car plate goes from old car to new car before you drive off. You buy a second car dealer, has stack of plates you fill out paper work to get another plate and they put it on your car, 3 minutes. I had the same two plates for 30 years and 8 cars.
Considering that California allowed no plates at all when a car was bought until just a few years ago when the paper plates were introduced I don't see this getting fixed anytime soon.
California only started using temporary paper plates in 2019. Before that you just waited until your metal plates arrived from DMV, but there was no way to know how long the vehicle had been on the road with no plates.
I’m glad this is going in effect. Fake tags = no insurance, no drivers license and usually a finance company looking for their vehicle. I live in a small town and 34% of vehicles have paper tags, some over 6 months old.
No in Canada we have our criminals making license plates...in jail. Just more Canadian slave labour. Maybe we just have more jailed criminals and less people buying cars then you do to keep up with demand....cuz who can afford cars in OUR country.
I’m glad they have passed this law. Here in Michigan the plates always go with the person not the car. Makes a big difference. Because really the only time a paper tag is needed is if you don’t have an existing metal plate. When I lived in California it was opposite. The plates stay with the car not the person unless they are vanity plates.
I have vanity plates, so when I get a new car, they have to scan my plates and send it in with my paperwork to the DMV Then I just wait for the Blue Sticker to come in and I’m all set.
One time when I bought a new car, the system was down and they had to give me paper plates because they couldn’t transfer my metal one at the time. I wonder what will happen when paper plates are no longer an option and the system goes down? Sorry, can’t sell you a car, the State’s ancient computers crashed.
In some states in Mexico, like Nuevo Leon temporary permits were banned as fakes were used to drive stolen vehicles and/or to use them on cars to commit other crimes and there´s now always an inventory of new and unasigned license plates, so when you register a car you get them instantly, I think it worked pretty well
FINALLY! The State of Texas does something that I FULLY approve of. As A armed security officer, I have lost count of the number of suspect vehicles that had paper plates when I chased them off property after they were there stealing mail or packages. I hope the State of Texas makes it mandatory 1 year jail sentence for having a fake paper plate.
Driving with no ID, DL, SSN, INSURES, Blackened lights, 5% Tinted Windows is Constitution. Remain vigilant and stealth. The hell with the NWO-social credit score-mark of the beast. Riding undercover to do the Lord's work. Obey Jesus Christ Law. Disobey the Luciferian Conspiracy.
Honestly I wish the whole country would go to permanent tags. I hate worrying about a temporary tag. Utah already has a similar program where the dealer will give you a temp then register your vehicle for you and contact you once they have the plates for you to pick up. I wish that you’d be able to pay registration fees thru income taxes then never have to worries about expiration dates or dmv fees.
The easiest way to stop this is for each state to make it so the plate follows the driver. Buy your first car that plate is yours for life, every time you buy another car you simply take that plate with you. The new vehicle registration could be handled by the dealership, private purchases would require a trip to the DMV to reregister the plate to the new car.
@@ThatOneCatNyx The same rule applies you own that plate number for each car you own. If you decide to sell that car you keep the plates. If you do not reregister that plate number for a set number of years say 10 the number is reissued to a new car owner.
knew a guy that stole cars in the 90's and just drove them around . anyway he would ride the malls and find a car with the same make and color and just switch the plate with the stolen cars. i asked him if he ever got caught , he asked me my tag number I couldn't tell him he said no one knows a state issue number. he drove a Cadillac around for years like that just switch the plates every week or so . he was one of the first people I knew with a cordless drill .this same technique still works today . license plates catch honest people and low skilled crooks .
Until they get pulled over, or get in an accident. Guess they don't have a license number, VIN and title number isn't on the proof of ownership (title). Sure hope you don't ever have an incident with someone like that. I honestly have no worries as long as the other person is lawfully compliant. 🤣
@@Mauser1965 The point is, most drivers are so dumb they don't even know their own license plate, so they might not even realize it was stolen and never report it. Meanwhile, the guy who stole it can keep driving around and no one would know his car is stolen. He could even commit crimes with it. I have 3 cars and memorized all their plates.
@@for2utube perhaps you don't understand he would take the plate off the stolen car find another car that was not take that card playoff put it on the stolen car put stolen plate on the car that's not stolen .... Then every few days he would switch tags with another car of the same make model year and color..... nothing would have stopped him , see your assuming the people noticed the plate was stolen then reported it ... Noone ever noticed it . He drove like a saint never sped never brought attention to himself. Sure if he had an accident if the people reported the plate ect ect . He change plates often.
I know Illinois has (or at least had) an in between measure where their temporary plates were made from yellow cardboard. I don't know who thought Texas should implement plates that anyone could print up at home but I'm glad they did something about it. Rule of thumb, if you see a paper tag and it's not a brand new car, stay far away from it.
This problem is rampant in jersey. I literally see these fake tags and expired paper tags every day by the hundreds. Now if only we could make front windshield tinting a felony. Every car ive owned has had window tint since I was 18 years old, and ive never seen anything more dangerous than drivers driving around with full blackout limo tint on their front windshield.
not to mention that every other car on the road now drives without a front plate...when the hell did THAT start? at first i thought they were just PA and NY drivers...then i noticed 90% of them arent...
They should make it where the dealerships can go pick up the plates everyday from the dmv. The customers can come back the next day if the dmv already closed.
I’m from California and I’m surprised this hasn’t been done already in Texas. In fact if you lose your paper plates you can just request another paper tags in Texas. I thought that was wrong
I own a independent dealer in florida for about 5 years, we nerver had any issue with the paper tag, but dmv give dealer a max of 5 dealer tags to move the vehicle for test drive or other purpose, you can only issue 1 paper tag for 30 days after the vehicule has been sold, a second temp tag if you were not able to finish the process in 30 days, they don’t copy you plate, if a citizen is responsible he will nerver put himself in that situation
This is awesome. A lot of people thwart paying judgements, where they owe people money and have liens on their cars, and are unable to get registration, by printing these paper tags. These paper tags allow these deadbeats to have mobility and keep doing what they are doing and not worry about paying their liens. By abolishing these paper tags, the deadbeats will now have to pay up for their liens just so they are able to get on with their daily lives. I am surprised that it took so long. I am more surprised that this country has such an antiquated system designed not to do the right thing but to please the respective stakeholders.
In Indiana, the tag goes with the owner, so when the car is traded in, the plate is moved from one car to the other. The only time that a temporary tag (paper) is needed is when there was no trade in. I don't know how much of a problem fake paper tags are in Indiana.
Which is even worse, you have working citizens in the dead stop traffic, while you have thieves, crooks, liars driving in toll lanes FOR FREE. The system has never given the working class and honest people an advantage over the crooks of the country.
It's funny how Texas thinks this law does anything to solve the problem. That guy who shot the cop before paper plates, would have just ran with no plate and claimed he just bought the car. It doesn't solve the problem of criminals needing to cover their identity so they can commit crimes. Paper plates actually held more people accountable because you have a plate number to report, even if it's a fake one. If a crime occurs, you can still call 911 with the fake plate number, and the cops can scan the area's license plate readers for the car. Now, it's going back to the stone age where it's easier to get away with no identifiable information on the car.
@Rocket Boards Most paper plates isnt illegal, but it is impossible to track since I saw some news about dealership business is all about selling paper plate, cop can scan the tag and it show legit. But the car maybe not be what it is.
Paper "temp" tags don't need to be a thing. They solve no problem which can't be addressed any other way. I was behind a car at a traffic light the other day and their paper tag had expired three months ago. And everyone has seen the police department twitter post pic of the car with the temp tag that expires on February 31st.
At least in IL at dealers you get your plates when you buy a car, it’s registered there instead of at a DMV. Arguably the one functional thing our state government has done 😂
@@davewilson7602you realize you never own your vehicle right? Have a look at your title and read it. The fact you're hunky dory with the dealer handing your property over to the state for convenience is hilarious.
My neighbor has had a commercial box truck for a year and it has paper plates. He keeps changing them ever so often. I reported it because 1. Box trucks aren’t allowed in a residential area 2. We can’t see around it 3. Paper plates for a YEAR = suspicious It was closed out. Nothing done. So it’s safe to say Texas still isn’t forcing this.
This is a no Brainer! Take the registration from your previous car and affix it to your new one! In New York when you register your motor vehicle you receive a metal tag.
Oh how I yearn for the days of annually issued, enameled license plates. The garbage plates Pennsylvania issues now don't even last a couple years before becoming illegible.
If PA is anything like NY, the cops will ticket you for an illegible plate even though the state openly acknowledge the issue and will provide replacements for free.
@@sparkypvp2167 Gotta find a police officer to fill in his portion of an application, stating that it is illegible, then you can send in the form and wait for a free replacement.
INCREDIBLE! 1) They finally did something they didn't want to do but everyone knew it should have been done 2) I'm looking for this to be replicated to the rest of the country 3) Friggin do this crap with the rear of the legislation. Actually get progress on laws etc (not just drag your feet). 4) I'm sure we have tons of other representatives willing to go through this, go the distance... Actually follow through regardless of how many stops.
the ISSUE is not that there is fake tags.. the issue is that 100% of these tags are being used by those who CAN NOT drive aka a huge rap sheet when insurance is WAY TO MUCH. these people must be removed from the roads.
I'm surprised that they didn't talk about the "negative impact" it will have on our most "vulnerable community" in order to shame the governor out of signing
Every one is a victim when you sign a contract with the state. They enforce their "policy", not law, at the barrel of a gun... And you just smile and beg for forgiveness lol
They need todo away with "license" plates and create an "IDENTIFICATION" plate that stays with the car! It solves the registration problems also! The only reason they are pissed is because they want to be able create more REVENUE! 😱😝🤪🤣👍👍🇺🇲
You are forgetting that the permanent plate needs to have your name removed in the system and the new owners name added. This isn't saving you anything.
Crazy thing is, people are already making & selling metal license plates. They always been a step ahead of the government. Just like inspection stickers, $90 & you can get a legal sticker.
most criminals are broke idiots and wont go through that hassle. theyll just bite the bullet and take the risk like they always have, it was just easy until now.
The transfer from one vehicle to another at the end is an AMAZING idea and I wonder why I never knew of this... I have some plates I liked and were easy to remember.. I will be doing this for my next vehicle purchase.
@@rkevic if you listen to the end.. they said that you can transfers your older vehicles license plates to your new one by just filling out a form now… so now if you trade in.. you can just transfer your plates from your old vehicle to your new one
@@sevokevo yeah, this is not new.. but normally with used cars you don't even take the plate off. You sell it private party then you transfer the tag as well. The exception are entitlement and handicapped plates. Mine are entitlement so they had to come off. But if you are doing a trade in the dealer should be able to use your old plate on the new vehicle.
Yea but the underlying cause is the DMV itself. They are the ones who caused the delay in real plates which cause them to come with paper plates. Fix the DMV.
DMV is unconstitutional. You're signing a contract with the state. Once you do you have to follow their rules or get phucked. I find it hilarious that people so quickly sign their rights away for a card and some paper. You don't need a license, registration, or insurance to travel with your personal property.
I live in Nevada and I have seen cars with genuine paper plates that were expired by TWO years. And they were still using them and getting away with it. It's not fair to the rest us law abiding citizens.
How about removing emissions from Tarrant instead of useless paper? Hes a Democrat with this sorta legislation. What was the point of this? License plate theft will become an issue.
No shit. This whole piece was centered around GPPD officer's passing, RIP, and other PDs rallying around to get it done. Yet when normal citizens ask reps like cringe smiling Goldman and respectfully Rep. West, nothing gets done. Guess I'm happy there's an end to this but ffs.. We see you, and what it takes..
You're cutting in to their bottom line when you unalive one of them... Don't worry, they'll find a new order follower soon. This country has a lot of them.
Stamped temporary tags can be an option, however if you can go to the DMV to pick up a metal temp tag, you may as well pick up your permanent tag. Another option is to do like Puerto Rico where you buy a car and the dealership both sends you on the road with a permanent plate and they handle registration on your behalf.
I don't see how this solves anything. Before paper plates, you bought a new car, and waited weeks to get your real plates in the mail or before they were ready to be picked up in person. In the mean time, cars are driving around with no plates. Criminals will just go back to running no plates, and cops will have to pull them over and get shot and killed just like this officer did. It literally solves nothing. Even if you can provide metal plates at the time of purchase, It still won't solve the fact that in 2 minutes, criminals can steal any license plate they want and put it on their cars. The problem is criminals not running the correct plates for their car. This "solution" doesn't address that issue at all.
What if someone hit and run on your parked Impreza, but you have it on camera? Sure would make it easier when you have to file a insurance claim. Some law enforcement vehicles have recognition systems, and it will become more common place. Illegal/illicit actions become limited by such actions. But then your not bother by the amount you pay to insurance. 😉
@@Mauser1965what if the sky turned purple? You don't make laws that have no victim. It's not a crime. What you want is a communist police state. You could totally move to China where they scan your face every 100yds if you like.
Firstly, vehicles that are driven without insurance are impounded. Secondly, asset forfeiture for having a paper tag is a violation of the 4th amendment to the US Constitution. Tell me, how is Greg Abbott responsible for this?
@@marmars1081these mouth breathers screaming "take their shit!" Are pathetic commies. They're just mad they are slaves to the system and follow the "rules". I don't follow "rules". I follow the constitution, as we all should. Stop contracting with the gov
I agree, it’s mostly illegal immigrants with no insurance or proper registration. They drive recklessly because they know they’re above the law. They also love slamming down a case of coronas and getting behind the wheel of a car without a care in the world. When they cause a wreck they just pretend to not speak English.
The solution is simple, each vehicle has a vin and and owner. Create a QR code that links the vehicle to the system. The problem isn't the plates it's the lack of punishment. It should be a federal crime to falsifying federal documents.
The people who participated should pay as well! Your car was registered and inspected in 2018 with 90k miles and hasn't been registered since 2019 and shows no title transfer from out of town and now has 142k on the OD?? $500!
Half the time when I see a paper tag, even a legitimate one, they're blown up from the air movement and you cant read them anyways, might as well just have a blank bit of paper back there.
1:33 _you've got a computer and a printer at home you can make a Texas paper tag_ WHaAATT?!! You mean to tell me they couldn't figure this out when they FIRST started issuing them?
Curious, but how is it done for new vehicles and no previous plate? Does the dealer have a handful of virgin plates that they issue or do you go to the DMV first?
The unique ID should be permanently affixed to the car at the factory; and included on the title. It should be done at government expense; since it is solely for the use of law enforcement. There should be no recurring charge for the cars owner.
Yeah Minnesota used to have the little yellow tags that went on the inside of the rear window for temporary 21 day tags. The problem is with all the SUV’s with dark windows the cops couldn’t see them to see when they expired. About 2 years ago they went to the cardboard tags so at least they could read them. The problem with any temporary tags is it’s a way that uninsured,unlicensed drivers to get away with not paying for plates!!! Kinda 🤬me off that people who pay for plates,insurance and so on get hit by one of these idiots that shouldn’t even be on the road!! 😡🤬😡

Where I lived for 30 years, plate is issued to a person, then a car is listed for it. You trade car plate goes from old car to new car before you drive off. You buy a second car dealer, has stack of plates you fill out paper work to get another plate and they put it on your car, 3 minutes. I had the same two plates for 30 years and 8 cars.
this is a growing problem in california and must be fixed
but then they'd have to be able to actually pull people over and they would probably want to avoid a chase or violent situation
Considering that California allowed no plates at all when a car was bought until just a few years ago when the paper plates were introduced I don't see this getting fixed anytime soon.
California's entire legal system needs to be "fixed".
if an officer didn’t die due to this issue this bill the police wouldn’t have backed it and it would have never passed in TX
California only started using temporary paper plates in 2019. Before that you just waited until your metal plates arrived from DMV, but there was no way to know how long the vehicle had been on the road with no plates.
I’m glad this is going in effect. Fake tags = no insurance, no drivers license and usually a finance company looking for their vehicle. I live in a small town and 34% of vehicles have paper tags, some over 6 months old.
Liar.
Theres still ways around it but at least this ban on paper plates will crack down on no insurance and stolen vehicles
@@marioelburro1492 Do you read? This guy is a liar. Move on.
Insurance doesn’t come to your home unless though to check that you have actual plates tho.
We need to remove paper plates... It's stupid. Canada doesn't do paper plates.
Most states don't.
I need it for my hotdog. 🤪
Canada is Communist, though.
No in Canada we have our criminals making license plates...in jail. Just more Canadian slave labour. Maybe we just have more jailed criminals and less people buying cars then you do to keep up with demand....cuz who can afford cars in OUR country.
Who cares about Canada 😊
I’m glad they have passed this law. Here in Michigan the plates always go with the person not the car. Makes a big difference. Because really the only time a paper tag is needed is if you don’t have an existing metal plate. When I lived in California it was opposite. The plates stay with the car not the person unless they are vanity plates.
I have vanity plates, so when I get a new car, they have to scan my plates and send it in with my paperwork to the DMV Then I just wait for the Blue Sticker to come in and I’m all set.
In WI they go to both - you can transfer them to another car you own, or even a family member very easily and it's cheaper than a new plate.
I have 2 cars and 1 pickup, in Michigan would I get 3 different plates?
One time when I bought a new car, the system was down and they had to give me paper plates because they couldn’t transfer my metal one at the time. I wonder what will happen when paper plates are no longer an option and the system goes down? Sorry, can’t sell you a car, the State’s ancient computers crashed.
@@thedude5040yes. That’s any state unless you are an dealership.
how this isnt a felony across all 50 states blows my mind. How it became a trend in the first place says a lot about our government.
It’s not gonna be a felony it’s just a fake paper plate they should be worried about drugs and human trafficking instead of this
In some states in Mexico, like Nuevo Leon temporary permits were banned as fakes were used to drive stolen vehicles and/or to use them on cars to commit other crimes and there´s now always an inventory of new and unasigned license plates, so when you register a car you get them instantly, I think it worked pretty well
I hope other states implement this
Plenty of states don't.
I hope they dont
FINALLY! The State of Texas does something that I FULLY approve of. As A armed security officer, I have lost count of the number of suspect vehicles that had paper plates when I chased them off property after they were there stealing mail or packages. I hope the State of Texas makes it mandatory 1 year jail sentence for having a fake paper plate.
Driving with no ID, DL, SSN, INSURES, Blackened lights, 5% Tinted Windows is Constitution. Remain vigilant and stealth. The hell with the NWO-social credit score-mark of the beast. Riding undercover to do the Lord's work. Obey Jesus Christ Law. Disobey the Luciferian Conspiracy.
Honestly I wish the whole country would go to permanent tags. I hate worrying about a temporary tag. Utah already has a similar program where the dealer will give you a temp then register your vehicle for you and contact you once they have the plates for you to pick up. I wish that you’d be able to pay registration fees thru income taxes then never have to worries about expiration dates or dmv fees.
I'd never let a dealer inject themselves into handling my property. Utards... never the sharpest.
The easiest way to stop this is for each state to make it so the plate follows the driver. Buy your first car that plate is yours for life, every time you buy another car you simply take that plate with you. The new vehicle registration could be handled by the dealership, private purchases would require a trip to the DMV to reregister the plate to the new car.
What about if you own more than one car?
@@ThatOneCatNyx The same rule applies you own that plate number for each car you own. If you decide to sell that car you keep the plates. If you do not reregister that plate number for a set number of years say 10 the number is reissued to a new car owner.
I’m in Virginia and see those Texas paper tags on lots of vehicles. Most would fail our safety inspection. Now I know why.
And I live in Maryland and see a lot of the same. Makes you want to believe in miracles that a junk car could make a 1500 mile or so trip up here.
Virginia has paper temporary tags.
Ridiculous they let it be so easy for so long.
It's not we should keep them smh
@@brandon6541 keep crying. get a real plate or dont drive.
knew a guy that stole cars in the 90's and just drove them around . anyway he would ride the malls and find a car with the same make and color and just switch the plate with the stolen cars. i asked him if he ever got caught , he asked me my tag number I couldn't tell him he said no one knows a state issue number. he drove a Cadillac around for years like that just switch the plates every week or so . he was one of the first people I knew with a cordless drill .this same technique still works today . license plates catch honest people and low skilled crooks .
Until they get pulled over, or get in an accident. Guess they don't have a license number, VIN and title number isn't on the proof of ownership (title). Sure hope you don't ever have an incident with someone like that. I honestly have no worries as long as the other person is lawfully compliant. 🤣
The plate # is on your registration...at least in Mich. Same w/ VIN.
@@Mauser1965 The point is, most drivers are so dumb they don't even know their own license plate, so they might not even realize it was stolen and never report it. Meanwhile, the guy who stole it can keep driving around and no one would know his car is stolen. He could even commit crimes with it. I have 3 cars and memorized all their plates.
@william Brennan Look up ALPR. There’s a bunch that have gone up in cities near me.
@@for2utube perhaps you don't understand he would take the plate off the stolen car find another car that was not take that card playoff put it on the stolen car put stolen plate on the car that's not stolen .... Then every few days he would switch tags with another car of the same make model year and color..... nothing would have stopped him , see your assuming the people noticed the plate was stolen then reported it ... Noone ever noticed it . He drove like a saint never sped never brought attention to himself. Sure if he had an accident if the people reported the plate ect ect . He change plates often.
I know Illinois has (or at least had) an in between measure where their temporary plates were made from yellow cardboard. I don't know who thought Texas should implement plates that anyone could print up at home but I'm glad they did something about it.
Rule of thumb, if you see a paper tag and it's not a brand new car, stay far away from it.
yup...if it also has busted out lights and tinted windows, you can bet your ass the driver is _supposed_ to be in prison...
A timely correction of a crazy situation . Occasionally, a law gets passed that makes sense to every reasonable person.
This problem is rampant in jersey. I literally see these fake tags and expired paper tags every day by the hundreds. Now if only we could make front windshield tinting a felony. Every car ive owned has had window tint since I was 18 years old, and ive never seen anything more dangerous than drivers driving around with full blackout limo tint on their front windshield.
not to mention that every other car on the road now drives without a front plate...when the hell did THAT start? at first i thought they were just PA and NY drivers...then i noticed 90% of them arent...
@@nikoc8968A lot of people I know do that for vanity purpose.
Stuff the room full of armed uniformed cops, that's how things are done in a police state
Amazing when government works like it should
They should make it where the dealerships can go pick up the plates everyday from the dmv. The customers can come back the next day if the dmv already closed.
Some states the licensed dealerships already have inventory of metal plates and you get it with the car.
The DMV doesn't need to be the only one that has plates.
I’m from California and I’m surprised this hasn’t been done already in Texas.
In fact if you lose your paper plates you can just request another paper tags in Texas. I thought that was wrong
Also the old tag needs to be returned to the DMV. Some people will sale you their old tag and get a new one.
*Sell
Every car has two licence plates. People just have to go back to stealing plates again. 😂😂😂
Card shouldn’t leave the lot without metal plates.
I own a independent dealer in florida for about 5 years, we nerver had any issue with the paper tag, but dmv give dealer a max of 5 dealer tags to move the vehicle for test drive or other purpose, you can only issue 1 paper tag for 30 days after the vehicule has been sold, a second temp tag if you were not able to finish the process in 30 days, they don’t copy you plate, if a citizen is responsible he will nerver put himself in that situation
You ARE kidding, right?
or did you watch a different video than I did?
This is awesome. A lot of people thwart paying judgements, where they owe people money and have liens on their cars, and are unable to get registration, by printing these paper tags. These paper tags allow these deadbeats to have mobility and keep doing what they are doing and not worry about paying their liens. By abolishing these paper tags, the deadbeats will now have to pay up for their liens just so they are able to get on with their daily lives. I am surprised that it took so long. I am more surprised that this country has such an antiquated system designed not to do the right thing but to please the respective stakeholders.
Also used to avoid paying tolls.
This needs to become a nationwide law!
In Indiana, the tag goes with the owner, so when the car is traded in, the plate is moved from one car to the other. The only time that a temporary tag (paper) is needed is when there was no trade in. I don't know how much of a problem fake paper tags are in Indiana.
It wasn't a problem until toll roads, etc. entered the "Pay by tag" era.
Which is even worse, you have working citizens in the dead stop traffic, while you have thieves, crooks, liars driving in toll lanes FOR FREE. The system has never given the working class and honest people an advantage over the crooks of the country.
@@abrahammc2125you're not honest. If you were you'd stop contracting with the state to use your own personal property. You're just a slave.
Lol its so funny because CA just started issuing paper tags instead of having dealer tags as temporary tags and now TX is getting rid of it.
It’s because so many people go through red light cameras and toll bridges without paying.
It's funny how Texas thinks this law does anything to solve the problem. That guy who shot the cop before paper plates, would have just ran with no plate and claimed he just bought the car. It doesn't solve the problem of criminals needing to cover their identity so they can commit crimes. Paper plates actually held more people accountable because you have a plate number to report, even if it's a fake one. If a crime occurs, you can still call 911 with the fake plate number, and the cops can scan the area's license plate readers for the car. Now, it's going back to the stone age where it's easier to get away with no identifiable information on the car.
@Rocket Boards Most paper plates isnt illegal, but it is impossible to track since I saw some news about dealership business is all about selling paper plate, cop can scan the tag and it show legit. But the car maybe not be what it is.
@@harlock75yep, what the current law makers do is pass a law; then celebrate; but the new law creates another problem.
While we’re at it get rid of front plates!
This is nothing more than a money grab.
Paper "temp" tags don't need to be a thing. They solve no problem which can't be addressed any other way. I was behind a car at a traffic light the other day and their paper tag had expired three months ago. And everyone has seen the police department twitter post pic of the car with the temp tag that expires on February 31st.
At least in IL at dealers you get your plates when you buy a car, it’s registered there instead of at a DMV.
Arguably the one functional thing our state government has done 😂
@@davewilson7602you realize you never own your vehicle right? Have a look at your title and read it. The fact you're hunky dory with the dealer handing your property over to the state for convenience is hilarious.

Better than having license plate bandit
My neighbor has had a commercial box truck for a year and it has paper plates. He keeps changing them ever so often. I reported it because 1. Box trucks aren’t allowed in a residential area 2. We can’t see around it 3. Paper plates for a YEAR = suspicious
It was closed out. Nothing done. So it’s safe to say Texas still isn’t forcing this.
This is a no Brainer! Take the registration from your previous car and affix it to your new one! In New York when you register your motor vehicle you receive a metal tag.
Oh how I yearn for the days of annually issued, enameled license plates.
The garbage plates Pennsylvania issues now don't even last a couple years before becoming illegible.
Perfect for people who drives often on freeway and wants to avoid tolls.
If PA is anything like NY, the cops will ticket you for an illegible plate even though the state openly acknowledge the issue and will provide replacements for free.
I mean it a hassle for sure, but you can always go to the DMV and request a new one free of charge. That how it done in NY at least.
@@sparkypvp2167 Gotta find a police officer to fill in his portion of an application, stating that it is illegible, then you can send in the form and wait for a free replacement.

4) I'm sure we have tons of other representatives willing to go through this, go the distance... Actually follow through regardless of how many stops.
Broken window theory. Rules are there for a reason !
the ISSUE is not that there is fake tags.. the issue is that 100% of these tags are being used by those who CAN NOT drive aka a huge rap sheet when insurance is WAY TO MUCH. these people must be removed from the roads.
I'm surprised that they didn't talk about the "negative impact" it will have on our most "vulnerable community" in order to shame the governor out of signing
excellent
This is more about how the vulnerable community victimizes the rest of us
Every one is a victim when you sign a contract with the state. They enforce their "policy", not law, at the barrel of a gun... And you just smile and beg for forgiveness lol
They need todo away with "license" plates and create an "IDENTIFICATION" plate that stays with the car! It solves the registration problems also! The only reason they are pissed is because they want to be able create more REVENUE! 😱😝🤪🤣👍👍🇺🇲
You are forgetting that the permanent plate needs to have your name removed in the system and the new owners name added. This isn't saving you anything.

@@redwolfexr see I never knew this because it’s always just getting new plates for me

We have those in Virginia, too. Half the time you see someone driving recklessly, they inevitably have a paper plate.
Yea but the underlying cause is the DMV itself. They are the ones who caused the delay in real plates which cause them to come with paper plates. Fix the DMV.
Yup, the time it takes to make plates is insane. Definitely need to privatize the process.
DMV is unconstitutional. You're signing a contract with the state. Once you do you have to follow their rules or get phucked. I find it hilarious that people so quickly sign their rights away for a card and some paper. You don't need a license, registration, or insurance to travel with your personal property.

I never thought I'd agree on anything with Greg Abott, and here I am...
Stamped temporary tags can be an option, however if you can go to the DMV to pick up a metal temp tag, you may as well pick up your permanent tag. Another option is to do like Puerto Rico where you buy a car and the dealership both sends you on the road with a permanent plate and they handle registration on your behalf.
I don't see how this solves anything. Before paper plates, you bought a new car, and waited weeks to get your real plates in the mail or before they were ready to be picked up in person. In the mean time, cars are driving around with no plates. Criminals will just go back to running no plates, and cops will have to pull them over and get shot and killed just like this officer did. It literally solves nothing. Even if you can provide metal plates at the time of purchase, It still won't solve the fact that in 2 minutes, criminals can steal any license plate they want and put it on their cars. The problem is criminals not running the correct plates for their car. This "solution" doesn't address that issue at all.
What if someone hit and run on your parked Impreza, but you have it on camera? Sure would make it easier when you have to file a insurance claim. Some law enforcement vehicles have recognition systems, and it will become more common place. Illegal/illicit actions become limited by such actions. But then your not bother by the amount you pay to insurance. 😉
they can steal a license plate, but if a cop ever runs their plate and that plate is reported stolen, they can be pulled over.
the way I understand it is that dealers will maintain an inventory of plates on hand. When you buy a car you get a plate right then and there.
@@Mauser1965what if the sky turned purple? You don't make laws that have no victim. It's not a crime. What you want is a communist police state. You could totally move to China where they scan your face every 100yds if you like.
Or you could just impound and auction any and all vehicles that have fake tags. But I guess Abbotta crippled mind can’t figure this out.
Firstly, vehicles that are driven without insurance are impounded. Secondly, asset forfeiture for having a paper tag is a violation of the 4th amendment to the US Constitution.
Tell me, how is Greg Abbott responsible for this?

They also love slamming down a case of coronas and getting behind the wheel of a car without a care in the world. When they cause a wreck they just pretend to not speak English.
I agree. Worst people on the planet.
The solution is simple, each vehicle has a vin and and owner. Create a QR code that links the vehicle to the system. The problem isn't the plates it's the lack of punishment. It should be a federal crime to falsifying federal documents.
Next step, facial scanning and DNA sample every 100yds. Let's keep this train going! You sound scared of liberty.
That's wonderful news. Paper tags should not be a thing at all anywhere. Hopefully the Texas DMV can provide the metal plates fast.
Vermont has those temporary paper tags too, and we have the same problem with fake tags that Texas does.
This doesnt bother people who have lives to live

I appreciate the fact that they’ll have a way to fix this, just kinda annoyed it’ll take two years to be implemented in the state.
This is a problem in every state
Half the time when I see a paper tag, even a legitimate one, they're blown up from the air movement and you cant read them anyways, might as well just have a blank bit of paper back there.
1:33 _you've got a computer and a printer at home you can make a Texas paper tag_ WHaAATT?!! You mean to tell me they couldn't figure this out when they FIRST started issuing them?
This the opposite of California's requirement of paper tags in the last few years.....
I like how they pretend this solves any problem. People will just install expired plates from out of state.
The Auto Dealers lobby didn’t want it I’m surprised it passed.
Yes and thank you! Was honestly tired of paying the tags and fees each year to just see so many cars on the road with fake tags.
Every state should have where you can at a dealership change tags from one vehicle to another
Curious, but how is it done for new vehicles and no previous plate? Does the dealer have a handful of virgin plates that they issue or do you go to the DMV first?
About time, damn!
Wow. Catching up to what other, more enlightened states have been doing for decades. You buy or register a car, you get a metal plate.
New Mexico needs this!
Congratulations, only about 20 years slower than most states.
All states should get rid of paper tags. I remembered getting my metal tags transferred to the new vehicle within an half an hour of purchase.
Abbott will never stand up for anyone
The unique ID should be permanently affixed to the car at the factory; and included on the title.
It should be done at government expense; since it is solely for the use of law enforcement.
There should be no recurring charge for the cars owner.

Yeah Minnesota used to have the little yellow tags that went on the inside of the rear window for temporary 21 day tags. The problem is with all the SUV’s with dark windows the cops couldn’t see them to see when they expired. About 2 years ago they went to the cardboard tags so at least they could read them. The problem with any temporary tags is it’s a way that uninsured,unlicensed drivers to get away with not paying for plates!!!
