That have fake/modified plates? I’ve seen fake/expired temp tags being sold in $bigcity Facebook groups. It’s probably because as another commenter said not worth their time. Seems like NYC has been battling this for years. https://m.youtube.com/results?search_query=Fake+plates+new+york+city https://m.youtube.com/results?search_query=Fake+plates+new+y... I vaguely remember some YouTube vlogger that would walk around and spot the fake/modified/obstructed plate. One obstruction was a leaf. That doesn’t even begin to include the probably illegal tinted covers.

It’s a misdemeanor. Distributing them is a serious felony. They can get the buyers to flip. Don’t see why it isn’t worth their time. Anyway, what isn’t they are so busy doing? It’s definitely not arresting shoplifters, fare evaders, public deficaters, or those that engage in aggressive solicitation.

The DA won’t prosecute any of those crimes unless it is large enough to be I the news and then it’ll be thought about.

    So they have plenty of time on their hands, right?

      Seems like the definition of insanity to me. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Why spend time on crimes that are not going to prosecuted? Even with violent crime we see the offender walk right back out to the streets. The bigger question is why isn’t the DA prosecuting these crimes?

        If the cops aren’t going to be doing anything why not lay them off? At least we’d save money.

        No need to lay off, they’re quitting in droves and there are no new recruits to fill the void. Which is why some large cities have made it so non-citizens can join Law Enforcement. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-immigration-illinois-daca-boebert-desantis-968521926686#:~:text=“An%20individual%20who%20is%20not,subject%2C”%20the%20law%20reads https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-immigration-illinois-d...
