After you've thrown it away and then you can't get new vehicle
registration for your Van dial 1-800-POR-SUKR.
That is how they collect parking tickets in some Texas counties.
They also bust nonpaying child support x husbands.
They also bust parole or probation violators.
They just get pretty organized once in a while and bust somebody with
outstanding warrants of any type.
The States, Cities, Counties are now allowing their computers to have
on-line conversations and share information when you have an occasion to
do business with any Government office.
I'd say it is worth somewhere around $200.00 once every five years to
have peace in my life.
Weigh it for yourself and see if its cheaper where you live.
