That's just BS. They pulled you over because you were a cute young lady.

I had a cop pull me over once to settle a bet....was I driving a Volvo or a VW
Squareback?!!! I was so relieved when they said to each other that one of them
owed the other one $5 because it was the Square.
They let me get on my way.

i believe all tax office/vehicle registrations locations do them now. before in
tarrant county only 1 office could inspect your plates and approve them then
you had to go to another office to register them and yet send in a seperate
payment to austin for YOM plates---wait--- then you could register them like
any other plate. now thats all changed and everything including payment is done
at local office. 1 note here. DPS USED to let you register YOM plates even if
the YOM plate number was already in use. I believe that policy has changed. If
YOM plate number is in use you cant put it on your car. I know because i was
pulled over by a cop in southlake because my "PLATE" had a warrant on it or so
says the cop. when cop confirmed i was not the driver that the warrant was
attached to via the plate he let me go. i contacted the DPS the next day and
they assured me that my YOM plate number was in fact being used by TWO other
registered cars in Texas. only
solution was to put on new issue plates. i chose to keep my YOM 67 plates and
take the chance of getting pulled over again. also the cop that pulled me over
knew B4 hand that i wasnt the perp cuz his computer shows the plate# and make
model of car that the warrant is for along with the name of the person
regisered to it. I was in a 67 bus. he was pulling me over for the fun of it. I
never had a cop be so nice to me for pulling me over. i guess he was hoping for
a sean penn moment out of that movie which title escapes me now. but alas i was
just on my way home from work at 11pm.........

The form that gets sent to Austin is after the fact though right? The girl I
talked to indicated that I would be on my way that same day. The wait would be
for Austin to send the plates back or somethin' like that.

There's a form that has to be sent in to Austin. Yes, the plates must not be
rust buckets but it depends on the Tax Office you go to. I found that my local
one has anal retentive SFBs running it, but in the next city they're much nicer
and will let "a little rust" get by.
You'll also find that most of the Tax Office Buearotards don't grok Antique
stuff. You'll also now have the nice new Window Sticker to go with it. No
tags on the plates anymore.

plates they have to be in very good shape.
I have heard of DPS not accepting certain plates that were rusty and such.
Easy process. It'll take all of about 5 minutes, after you wait in the
long line.
