They Dispense Street Justice, One Defaced License Plate at a Time
- JoeAltmaier 4y agoLots of tortured arguments there. I'm on the side of the plate-restorers. They're not tampering with a private vehicle - the plates are government-owned. And it can't be called 'tampering' when you fix it - it's un-tampering at the very least. The police chief's blanket objection to all licence-plate-related-changes is disingenuous. I'd advocate a tamper-detection at the toll plaza and perhaps spikes jumping out of the pavement when the plate can't be read.
- eesmith 4y ago> The Metropolitan Transportation Authority says it loses around $50 million a year in evaded tolls on its bridges and tunnels. I'm curious ... how much did it cost to have toll agents? And how much does it cost to have traffic enforcement check for tampered plates? Because “Government doesn’t seem interested in solving this problem“ seems spot on.
