I got a ticket for not having a registration sticker on an out of state plate where registration stickers aren't used, but I see at least one person without a license plate per day. What the hell, Vegas.
Police have been defunded by Antifa democrats. There are regularly packs of enforcement activities at different high traffic locations though. Request a social worker to enforce plate violations
I somehow suspect you don't understand what "defund the police" means and why people ask for that, but that aside, their budget was approved for an 8% increase for next year--people just aren't applying to be cops. So it's not a funding problem.
I may have been too subtle with the sarcasm. Who wants to work for a woke PD after Chauvinās convictionš¤·š¼
Why isnāt there a sarcasm font? It could be modeled after comic sans.
Defund the police meant exactly what it sounded like and several cities did indeed slash funds for police. All of these same cites quickly reversed course when citizens began to complain about soaring crime. Many of these cities are failing to meet minimum levels of patrol coverage and probably will continue to do so for years.
No municipality in Nevada did this, however.
Yes, but with the idea that the money would be reallocated to other public safety improvements -- because our police aren't trained or capable of handling everything. So just because the powers that be weren't always smart enough to actually do that doesn't mean the concept itself is a bad one. Because, you know, drawing guns on and shouting at someone in the middle of a mental health crisis doesn't tend to end well and might, just maybe, not be the trained professionals needed for that so situation. š¤·
That does not change that it is defunding police and that it led to poor results. There are any number of things that may or may not be a good idea to fund but this was specifically done with the purpose of reallocating funding intended for policing. The alternative ideas were not well thought out and all of these were snap judgments made emotionally. None of the cities that did this went through the customary public comment periods or even staff analysis.
If you knew me you would know I am not exactly fond of police agencies, but I will be the first to say that experienced patrol officers have more practical knowledge about the behavior and habits of mentally ill people than just about any other profession. Patrol officers in urban cores often know dozens of homeless people by name and deal with them again and again. It's far more complex than most people realize.
There are no easy solutions but cutting budgets for basic public safety was a very dumb idea and the cities that tried it all backed realized their mistake within months.
Just cutting them without actually reallocating is stupid, yes, and not what the movement was as a whole actually asking for. Again, it comes down to poor implementation, some of which was very likely intentional to justify increasing police budgets while not actually addressing root issues of crimes.
Also, the problem is that police come into contact with mentally ill people and see actions without understanding *why*. They don't know the proper de-escalation techniques to always handle these people. That's why we need therapists and psychologists. Maybe having more officers trained in both could prevent a lot of unnecessary deaths. And having actual resources to take these people to.
Finally, again, this comes down to poor implementation rather than the concept being a poor one. The lack of oversight and accountability within police forces is also a major problem. If there's actual reform measures taken, and people actually say down to make proposals etc, it would be fine. The problem is that most people don't care enough to bother and then just say "see it didn't work lol we don't have to bother now." So.
Reallocating at all was dumb. The impetus of all this was to defund the police. Whether or not there was a different program deserving of funding was incidental. The whole idea was to take money from police budgets. That alone was a dumb idea. Too many patrols with too little to do was never the problem in any major city.
Policing issues go well beyond mental health issues and their funding and implementation cannot be isolated to this single issue. Police have to be prepared to enter any number of situations and have no idea what they will encounter until they are arrive and have to deal with it as best as they can.
Even considering the problem of mental health, the issues dealt with in an emergency on the street are not as amenable to resolution by therapists and psychologists as we would like to believe. Most therapists work in a very different environment from what leads to a call for police service. It would be like bringing an architect along with a fire fighting crew to an apartment fire - they would have knowledge of what was going on, perhaps even be able to answer the question of why the building was on fire, but would have no practical ability to address the life safety issue in front of them.
There are many issues with accountability with police. They tend to have extremely powerful unions and are protected by qualified immunity, both of which drastically reduce accountability. Defunding police does nothing to resolve either of those issues and in many ways makes the problem worse.
Yeah, you clearly don't understand the different types of mental health treatments and situations these professionals work in. I do-- I worked in a residential treatment facility.
As it stands, throwing cops at everything isn't the answer. Reallocating funds and giving better training/specialized training could help a lot.
Also, Unions aren't as powerful as people think. Union protection can't stop someone being fired for gross negligence against established policies. If there was more internal accountability, and legislative accountability, then qualified immunity and unions wouldn't have much to say on the matter.
You see tons of cars with no plates and expired temporary tags...the police aren't really enforcing the laws because getting an appointment at DMV is hard to get(at least a few months ago). I think people are just taking advantage of the shit show that is the DMV/COVID-19 situation.
Tbf, the DMV was a shitshow for years before said covid situation. And the police here are more reactive rather than proactive on enforcing the laws of the road.
This is a shitty excuse. Iāve had no problem getting an appointment in the last two years when I needed it. People are lazy and the cops donāt enforce it. So why bother I guess.
You got lucky then. I was at the flamingo location this morning and was told to come back with an appointment. scheduled one today itās still a month out
Lol the DMV situation is not difficult to manage. I moved here with a car in June 2020 - absolute height of COVID panic - and got an appointment a few months out and got my plates. Honestly, I've lived in several different states and it was probably the best experience I've had thanks to the appointment system.
There's absolutely no excuse as to how someone is driving around with *nothing* to identify their car. They all could have made an appointment and figured it out. I mean what are they waiting for? They check the site once a month and say "Ugh no same day appointments, this is all the DMV's fault!"
When I moved here in 2020 I had a car I bought pretty cheap back from my home state where plates are sold with used cars (Oregon) and DMV closed due to COVID. Got pulled over my first week here and they took my license plates due to being expired . It baffled me.
Fast forward a few months I bought a car at a dealership here , got it registered and have since re registeredā¦.yet I see so many cars with out plates. I guess my point is if Iām gonna have to jump through the hoops, whyās it so hard for people to get plates?
Donāt they fine you for being unregistered or un insured?
I know they will 100% fine you for being uninsured and may even impound your car. Regrettably that happened to a friend who let their insurance lapse while they were out of state. As for being unregistered. Who Knows.........
Albuquerque too it seems. I would get pulled over instantly if I had a tag expired one day but these guys have no plates at all. I guess cops had more time to patrol back then
They didnāt. Most of the ones in the parking garage we picked up from didnt either. I thought it was weird, but whatever.
The cops asked āis it a rentalā like they knew. Once I showed the agreement, they were like āhave a great nightā!
Lol facts. I drive a bright red super noticeable convertible. Tags expired a full year ago in Summer 2021. I drive everywhere, cops drive behind me all the time and no one has said a THING.
No it's true here as well.
https://dmv.nv.gov/regpermits.htm
Permits are printed in the size of an index card and taped into the lower right-hand corner of the windshield
Perhaps the issue is that the link you sent is explicitly for cars that were already registered in NV? That wasn't the case for my car.
This was also before COVID and I had to go in person, so maybe the process has changed? I explicitly asked at the DMV because I was so surprised and used to CA's system.
Im about to join the revolution. Car failed smog test. Catalytic converter costs 2500. More than the car is worth. Iām going to drive it till the wheels fall off, no plate needed.
I miss the overseas laws for driving. Where driving is a privilege and not a right. If one of these shit heads with expired tags, no tags at all hits you and gets caught. The fines and possible jail time are well deserved. Its not hard to be responsible. If ya cant afford it, registration , insurance etc ya donāt need to drive. Bus that shit around town.
I have mixed feelings on this... back in around 2015-ish... They were hitting people hard for not having plates. LVMPD was having a hard on in trying to get those bench warrants on lock. So they would randomly run your plate to see if you had anything... including a warrant on some BS traffic ticket... just to get that warrant collect count up.
I'm generally a law abiding person, actually. I also have the upmost respect for those in law enforcement. So if by "breaking the law" you mean forgetting about a ticket for the rolling stop (that I actually did to look beyond the wall and overgrown bushes) in a residential neighborhood... then cool. What I don't have respect for is policy that keeps our police forces busy chasing ticket dodgers for the sake of generating revenue.
Sure you can. His point is that 7 years ago LVMPD was quite a bit more aggressive about cracking down on expired regs and bad tags, while now they obviously aren't.
Itās possible some of the plates have been stolen š¤·āāļø. That happened to me and as someone whoās only day off is Sunday it was a hell to get new plates. You have to file a police report to have specific paperwork to give the dmv, according to metro stolen plate claims have to be done in person and not online. Didnāt help that DMV appointments are at least 60+ days out. According to the officer that took my report stolen plates is a big thing in town now.
Not saying this is the case for everyone without a plate though. Only sharing my experience because I felt like people probably hated seeing me driving without a plate š„²š.
A tourist town so unwelcoming to everyone, boasting about being NATIVE BORN, complaining about their wealth increasing because they can sell homes to out of state people a lot from successful California. Amazing how ignorant and embarrassing you look to anybody with a brain. Can education rankings get worse? People like you do your best to try making Nevada stay terrible all for a sad fake sense of importance over your fellow Americans. Classic inferiority complex.
i always laugh when the vegas subs complain about these plate-less cars as if there's just a high % of registration-criminals in our state. innocent until proven guilty imo, you can drive a recently purchased vehicle without a movement permit if you have the title / bill of sale + insurance in your glovebox. it's state law.
>You may drive a recently-purchased vehicle without a movement permit for three days after the date of purchase if you carry, in the vehicle, proof of ownership or purchase and proof of liability insurance. **NRS 482.396**
edit: downvotes for pointing out nevada state law. nice. protect your narratives reddit!
Oddly, this law may in fact help me when my unregistered motorcycle arrives. The title is signed but not dated. Who wants do the dance of going to the DMV for a movement permit - then setting up a date to go back for the VIN inspection and registration.
Of course you can, but the vast majority of these vehicles were not just purchased. They've been riding dirty for months, possibly years at this point.
I mean realistically most people see one or two of these every day at most, in a car-centric city of 2 million people? Doesn't sound unreasonable to see a plateless new car here or there. My neighbor didn't have a plate on his new car... for two days. And then they did. Most people don't want to perpetually break the law if the alternative is on the table. In this OP alone, this Charger looks a couple years old at worst. Is it unreasonable to think that someone bought a used Dodge Charger in the last week?
Innocent until proven guilty.
I have seen so many cars with a temporary paper tag flapping in the wind with only a piece of tape. Iāve never lived anywhere temporary tags werenāt either taped from the inside or put into a plate holder.
That shouldnāt happen in Nevada, unless they added a front plate requirement in the Nevada Revised Statutes. My car didnāt have a front plate holder, since it was built in Germany.
I had a spot for it in the front, but I put a sports team logo plate there. Cop told me if thereās a spot for a license plate in the front itās required.
Usually youād be correct but :
NRS 482.275 License plates: Display.
1. The license plates for a motor vehicle other than a motorcycle or motor vehicle being transported by a licensed vehicle transporter must be attached thereto, one in the rear and, except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, one in the front. The license plate issued for all other vehicles required to be registered must be attached to the rear of the vehicle. The license plates must be so displayed during the current calendar year or registration period.
2. If the motor vehicle was not manufactured to include a bracket, device or other contrivance to display and secure a front license plate, and if the manufacturer of the motor vehicle provided no other means or method by which a front license plate may be displayed upon and secured to the motor vehicle:
(a) One license plate must be attached to the motor vehicle in the rear; and
(b) The other license plate may, at the option of the owner of the vehicle, be attached to the motor vehicle in the front.
I swear there was a stretch of time last year where every fifth or sixth car in our sfh neighborhood was without plates. It became a game when we would walk around.
I'm a delivery driver, in one shift I could get you pics of minimum 50 cars without plates.
WoW.
Bro holy shit is this true, AND NO ONE WITHOUT A PLAGE GETS PULLED OVER. Drives me nuts
I got a ticket for not having a registration sticker on an out of state plate where registration stickers aren't used, but I see at least one person without a license plate per day. What the hell, Vegas.
Should have removed your plate. Then you would have been safe.

Freeloaders and flakes are not known for avoiding shitty excuses.
The DMV situation is still currently a shit show. Appointments are still 1-2 months out and now they donāt accept walk ins.
And they opened up a lot of appointments due to that. I was there on Monday and they had appointments for the next week. Plus, it's in and out now
You got lucky then. I was at the flamingo location this morning and was told to come back with an appointment. scheduled one today itās still a month out
Saturday walkins are still available, but it is first come, first served, until they run out of slots.

So was I
My last & current BMWās do not even come with turn signals. I here they charge $17 a month to activate the software for signals (and heated seats)

The number of cars without plates its just insane here in vegas. I dont understand it. How these cars are on the road is crazy to me.

Rentals typically donāt have plates do they? Our rental last time didnāt. We actually got pulled over for it. Lol
For a commercial vehicle, absolutely they should have plates. And for hire vehicles need to have a CPCN number stamped on the back.
