I see the entertainment value in this.  However, I'm in Louisiana
and because of the bad history of deadbeats in the state, you not only
have to show proof of insurance to register, but the owner must keep
it insured or lose the tags and pay a $50 annual fee for owning a
titled but unregistered vehicle.  If you don't turn in the tag, they
can tow it from your house.  On top of that, the insurance rates are
high because of the high rate of insurance fraud.

Damn deadbeats and crooks are ruining this state for the drunks.
