JerryK Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Why do we need to carry those stupid registration cards in our cars? In 30 seconds, the cop pulling you over runs your tag on his computer and knows your car is legit, your blood type, and what time you wake up at night to pee. The card has no purpose. idiots.

Larz Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 they may find it useful to see how you react to the request. Are you calm and collected or nervous ? do you have it handy in the glovebox or do you have to look under the seat for it ? it may also just give them time to look in the car for stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyHector Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 The law is still on the books in order to drive message board traffic via complaint threads like this. Kickbacks from wealthy message board operators keep it that way. The man just won. Again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cleaned out my car and cant find the stupid card, so now I have to go to the dmv and get a free replacement... -cant reprint it online -gotta give up my lunch from work -stand in line behind immigrants arguing about papers -and sit next to old people who gave up bathing during the depression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Another thing I don't get is when evaluating if you're drunk or not, sometimes they'll ask you to say the ABC's backwards. ****. I couldn't do that if I was sober. Believe me, I've tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No cop is going to make you recite the alphabet backwards and no one in their right mind would try it. I absolutely love the conspiracy theories out there. So they can give you a ticket for not having it. In Michigan yes, as a secondary violation. It's a waivable a/k/a "Fix It" ticket and when signed off on, can be dismissed. Asking for the is more of a means for establishing the driver as the owner of the vehicle (Having and/or knowing where the papers are) vs. a document we really need. By the time we pull you over, we already know your license plate and driving status/history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't do that if I was sober. Believe me, I've tried. It's because that is EXACTLY what they want you to say, it's basically an admission that you are drunk.

slowmoe57 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 When I got a DWI they made me stick my arms out like I was on a crucifix tilt my head back and count from 100 backwards -- I failed. IN Texas they ask for Licence and proof of insurance -- not the registration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneStarLady Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 When I got a DWI they made me sticke my arms out like I was on a crucifix tilt my head back and count from 100 backwards -- I failed. IN Texas they ask for Licence and proof of insurance -- not the registration. I was just about to say the same thing. The registration sticker's on the windshield (not the license plate) but they don't ask for registration, just license and insurance. That's why they give us lots of insurance cards -- we're supposed to have one in our wallet and one in the car at all times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
