well sammie, i am talking about a split window typical "hippie" bus that some cops have come to know and love. i used to have a 67 camper with YOM original 67 black CA plates on it. i kept it registered in CA thru a friends address. Keller cop did a high speed U turn in the middle of the intersection to come after me after not seeing the inspection and or registration sticker in the window at 2 am. i was on my way home from work, completley sober, but he thought he had his bust. so all i am saying is i like to play it safe. but everyone has free will. do what you want On Wed, Dec 22, 2010 at 5:03 PM, sammie smith <bugcollections@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>wrote: > I've got over 100,000 miles on my baja, antique plate, rear only, no > inspection sticker.
