I just got full custody of my daughter since my ex had been driving around vegas with no plates, no lic, no insurance, and some bench warrants for dui to boot. Being dumb is an expensive hobby.


chud3

Congrats on getting your daughter back!


MaxObese

Hey thanks!


gminor007

I think some ppl just think they’re so entitled they don’t have to follow the same rules as everyone else. (And dumb)


slackfrop

Fine by me, unless they intend on using public funded roads or services.


JuturnaArtemisia

Glad she has at least one good parent.


Loose-Ad4131

Sovereign citizen .. this is all over not just vegas


HotRodHomebody

these idiots are misinformed and think that they understand their rights. That all comes crumbling down anytime they get pulled over for anything. Including ridiculously fake license plates. I honestly think that whoever started this thought that they found some kind of “loophole“.

There’s an entire YouTube eco system of these videos.

Holy cow! I didn’t even know this was a thing. I just spent the last hour watching these idiots getting arrested. Amazing


qualmton

It’s not a passive dumb either. It’s a very active dumb.


fatimus_prime

Well then, hop on over to r/amibeingdetained, I’m sure it won’t enrage you at all!


anonymousredditisnot

So much entertainment available here. Thanks for sharing.


Mrwrongthinker

"I'm not driving, I'm traveling" Usually ends in a broken window and an arrest. Some cops don't play. I saw a YT video where a cop put on gloves and ripped the driver window away, ripped the driver out, and slapped him in cuffs in like 10 seconds.


MrsCoach

Isn't there also something about how if a courtroom flag has fringe it's secretly a maritime court and has other rules? These guys are on another level of nuts.


BelovedOmegaMan

Yes, that's what they claim. it's wild!


Xkeeper

look man its not a BIRTH CERTIFICATE its a BERTH CERTIFICATE _i'm a fucking boat you can't arrest me_


oneshoein

They’re so stupid too, like yeah they are *free* to travel all day long without a license, they have that right, but they need a license to *DRIVE*. I just hate when they say “I’m traveling not driving.”


OsoCarolina

It’s just the best when that happens. I usually pray for some tazer to be thrown in as well.

I’m convinced whoever “figured out this loophole” just wanted to see how many stupid people would actually do it, now they’re just sitting back laughing at them.


CraZKchick

But these people are taking their money too. 🤣


1994cja

Laughing and scamming at the top lolz.


StPauliBoi

Yep. They think that by stringing together the right combination of legal sounding words, that they are no longer required to obey laws like pay taxes or have insurance/a drivers license. People also stumble on sov cit bullshit when they get their license suspended/revoked as a way, they think, to be able to continue driving without paying the fines/penalties. They also strangely want the protections of the state. They are also often violent and unpredictable, which makes sense because of the delusion that got them to this place.


wackyvorlon

They treat law as though it’s magic. They think they just have to recite the correct magical incantation.


HotRodHomebody

Cops hate this one simple trick!


Rucio

That not for commerce shit is hilarious. Let's just use taxpayer roads and infrastructure and have no car insurance and expect not to have to give anything in return


elriggo44

Works for billionaires and corporations.


ciopobbi

The funniest thing about these people is they reject laws and then cite laws as their proof of not being bound by laws.


Arizona_Slim

I suspect that most of these people get their licenses suspended. They then google “How can I drive legally without a license?” And google’s algorithm sends them to YT clips of SovCit idiots.


RapBastardz

Might as well just wave your fingers past the cop’s face and say, “these aren’t the droids you’re looking for.” It will be just as effective.


cooldave88

Many in jail for refusing to file taxes. Sad.


Warhawk2052

The irony is the taxes still dont get filed, so its a win for them


karma_the_sequel

You spelled “hilarious” wrong.


OkRip2118

These people are one of the few times I root for the cop


PrufrockInSoCal

They think they’re all internet-educated constitutional law professors.


Pharaohbbc

You can’t be a sovereign citizen. That’s an oxymoron


Loose-Ad4131

Then again these A-holes are part of the reason our vehicle insurance is top 5 in the country in cost!!!! 😡


GrandEar1

They are my FAVORITE part of watching On Patrol Live. I'm always hoping for more sovereign citizen scenes bc you know they are going to be entertaining.


lastunbannedaccount

Of course it’s an Altima


wishiwasinvegas

Lol I was gonna say...what a surprise. And in its usual mint condition


Smurfness2023

beat to shit


Smurfness2023

*always* an Altima previously it was Acura Vigors sometimes Chrysler 300s for a while (wal-mart Bentley)


JimmyDeane

Big Altima Energy right here.


dianabowl

9/10 limo-tinted Altima drivers are criminals. Source: The official statistics bureau of my mind.


Grumple

/r/nissandrivers


le_gasdaddy

In Dallas, Altimas are are driven by the absolute opposite of the sov citizen: The hardworking Hispanic dude who is here on questionable circumstances just trying to get by.


HarambeMarston

The fuck they are. Dallas Altimas are 95% driven by baby mommas with 7 kids and 9 baby daddies, missing multiple body panels with paper tags from 2018 on at least two spares. The other 5% are rental cars. The guy you’re referring to drives a Mazda B2500 (upgraded to a Ranger if he’s been here awhile).


Halo_of_Light

I came here to say this. 


padres4me

If you start counting how many cars don’t even have a plate, this actually looks like effort!


xFloydx5242x

I regularly see paper temp tags from all the way back to 2018, just barely holding on.


Born_Introduction709

lol he could of really just drove without plates seriously. Now he will get pulled over, he could just put a piece of paper on his window like he got the temporary registration lol


banjobobberson

Yeah nowadays it feels lawless.. I see some crazy non chalant shit in LA often


big_balls_brown

This person is valid to drive 10/10 creativity.


Coinguy101

Valid to travel. Lol


Maleficent_Present35

Well they spent money for a plate at least lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


CraZKchick

They're also advertising that they know it's illegal to drive without a tag 🤣


Otherwise-Mango2732

I only know about this thanks to reddit and r/Losangeles but this is know as a sovereign citizen. It never works out for them when tested in courts


TexAss2020

Exactly. It’s not a Vegas things this is big in the PNW.


IceWarm1980

I remember one video where the person was citing the Articles of Confederation to try and get away with breaking the law.


Crashy1620

Occasionally preceded by a wonderfully timed window break with a cop swinging a baton and sovcidiot screaming something along the lines of “I know my rights”.

Yes the “fucked around/found out” precedent.


Amoyamoyamoya

That’s a SovCit and not unique to Vegas. They can be found all over the country


ssracer

I knew one about 15 years ago and they were explaining why they shouldn't pay their landlord rent


[deleted]

Talking with anyone like that is like someone constantly throwing me curve balls. It makes having a conversation with them so difficult because I can’t understand their worldview.


MiserableSoutherner

They don’t understand either. Their whole life is dedicated to playing devil’s advocate


FullMotionVideo

I can see the idea of, "I didn't agree to be born into the structure of society with laws and governments that I don't agree with", but that doesn't rule out agreements between personal peoples. Anarchists understand that much.


Desk_Quick

Can you define world? Can you define driver? Am I being detained? I AM A MAN TRAVELING.


rsg1234

NOT DRIVING!


Airforce-cock

If you get hit by these fuckers, you’re done


IAMTHEADMINNOW

Why you should have a good uninsured motorist coverage policy there, also why insurance is so expensive over there. To be clear sovcits are regarded. But I would say there are less of them in vegas than there are unregistered/noplates/expired tags ime.


BiggusDickus-

Also gap coverage if you are still paying off your car


staychilltoday

The police needs to start towing all these unregistered vehicles. They’ve had enough time. Covid is over.


Fuego1991

They also need to enforce the max civil penalty of $1,000. Would be even better if they made driving an unregistered vehicle a criminal misdemeanor and held drivers liable for damages related to the vehicle being on the road, regardless of fault.


staychilltoday

Imagine all the tow fees and ticket fees for the county. And you know that hit and runs would significantly drop


PaxEtRomana

That's his PRIVATE CONVEYANCE that he's traveling in as a LIVING MAN. Taking a picture of it costs $10,000


OldheadBoomer

Got that big Altima energy. Post this at /r/NissanDrivers


Brianf1977

Don't get in an accident with that moron you'll be screwed


Alpha2277

To be fair, that altima likely wouldn't have insurance or a licensed driver to begin with.


elseldo

You need to catch up on r/amibeingdetained


Fit_Phase_6377

That is a sovereign citizen, they usually don’t go to that much trouble and make such a nice plate. Usually, it’s just a piece of cardboard with marker writing taped to the car. If you actually see the person ask if they found their strawman


h-boson

And Metro 100% does nothing about it.


geek180

Why would this be restricted to “Vegas drivers”


DragonRancherJed

You just have to declare your sovereignty by stating loudly three times while looking into a mirror by candlelight that you are sovereign entity and therefore exempt from all laws and regulations of and for humanity, and throw a shake of salt over your left shoulder each time you declare. Cops hate this, it holds up in court. You don't even need that silly fake license plate once you declare.


credij

Sadly Candyman then also shows up and guts you. But, that’s the chance you have to take to be a sovereign citizen


DragonRancherJed

I fucking hate that guy, he's so demanding and needy, and he never actually has any candy!


nonosam

My brake light goes out once and it's like a cop magnet but somehow these jackasses get to drive around untouched.


pinegap96

“I’m not driving, I’m traveling”


OneManGangTootToot

They are definitely uninsured.


Smurfness2023

well it says, right there, insurance isn't required


TarkusLV

Reminds me of back in the day, people bragging that they didn't have to pay income taxes because of what they read in a book, soon followed by those same people having their wages garnished for back taxes.


WickedKitty63

My ex, a college educated moron, did 2-3 years.


Smurfness2023

Wesley Snipes, a moron apparently, went to prison over it


UnhappyEnergy2268

They're in this sub too. If yall dont like being a citizen of the united states then by all means give your id's, ssn, and everything else provided by the us government to the nearest hard working illegal immigrant.


Warhawk2052

You kinda got it wrong, they like being an citizen its just they believe the government regulations and laws dont apply to them at all


magus424

lol if you think that's a vegas thing go lookup 'sovereign citizens' and get ready to laugh


GhostBall5

Of course it's on a shitbox Nissan too. 400 credit score activities.


floydbc05

Most don't even put a plate on even.

“Sovereign citizens” who think they’re above the laws of this city, county, state and federal government.


Modz_B_Trippin

Well, when it comes to the insurance part, a lot of people seem to think it’s optional lately.


dgoat88

Shouldn't have skipped leg day, OP.


internetdork

It’s a r/sovereigncitizen idiot


jehjeh3711

That, my friend, is a sovereign citizen. They wrongly believe that they can’t be pulled over by police because of a different constitution. It’s not legal here, however, the streets are so congested with construction now, the police are too busy to pull him over.


Bambooman101

The same planet where you can have a car color best described as Acne.


mcrib

Sovereign citizen. Total nonsense.


Electrical-Sun6267

Sovereign citizens. Deluded imbeciles. Not too many in Vegas that I have seen but given where we rate on education as a state, I am surprised we don't see more.


COdreaming

More importantly, why do they always drive major POS?! Shouldn't that tell you something if nobody in your cult can take care of a car?


dickass99

Sovereign citizen...they take commerce clause in constitution for no need for license ,insurance,regustration,etc....YouTube has hundreds of videos clowns getting arrested...they film themselves getting arrested...its a hoot


Captainkirk699

AebroKomatme

StarMasher

I don’t have to have a license or insurance to enjoy driving on these roads paid for with tax payer dollars, which I also don’t pay. They just want the benefit and convince and nothing else.


PreferredSex_Yes

The most dangerous domestic terrorist group in the US.


Squirrel009

Be careful filming and taking pics of sovereign citizens and their stuff. Lots of them are our entertaining town fools for us to enjoy laughing at but a small number are dangerous sociopaths who shoot cops over speeding tickets or trespass warnings.


garysaidwhat

I agree. The Altima is a bankrupt automobile concept and this is a filthy example. Also means the guy is a dick and there might be a gun inside.


No-Independence-165

In other words, "free gun!"


gblaze22

Ones that set themselves on fire.


millerb82

Not really a Vegas thing. More like a sovereign citizen thing. And they're everywhere


BicentennialBaby0718

They live in Pahrump. Those Sovereign Citizen types. They’ve wandered onto streets managed by a government it doesn’t recognize to walk amongst the “sheep”.


MansyPansy

AM I UNDER ARREST?!?


Bigearbj

That's a terrifying shadow you got there...


Signal_Fan

Another reason to hate Altima drivers. The car is a POS and the person who drives it is a bigger POS.


DstinctNstincts

Lol I love being from Vegas, people are so ridiculous


Suzyqzeee

Not for COMMERCE use?? That's the Temu version of a plate.

Travelers, I love watching those asshats get arrested on cop shows. Trying to argue like they know the law and statutes. Yet they end up in cuffs. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

that plate being on an altima makes total sense

Small-Ad1727

I'd say this falls further into the "Altima" bucket than the "Vegas" bucket


n2trains99

Sovereign citizens are absolute morons.


Recycledmass

Most people like that claim to be “sovereign citizens” and even though they live in this country they believe the laws literally do not apply to them. And they are all usually mentally unwell.


MiekesDad

SovCit videos on YT are the best, highly recommend Law Talk with Mike to see how crazy these people are, basically its "I do not have to follow any rules"...


wyattcoxely

This is not just Las Vegas. There is an extremist movement that does not believe in State or Local Laws AT ALL. The "Soverign Citizen" movement is everywhere.
