I did same thing until a cop pulled me over just for that. Was crazy expensive ticket and then my license was flagged even though I paid ticket. Had to go get copy that I paid for flag removal. Was too much BS
So I get them now

Where's a good place to get a brake tag where they won't check on window tint?
I get mine from a dude named Kiko, and when I get there I have to call him, then he opens this huge garage door, closes it as soon as I get in. There's all kinds of exotic cars in this big arse warehouse.

I just went 2 weekends ago. It always feels like I'm doing some seriously shady shite when I do it

but popo had been cracking down on them lately.

So with 146 homicides just in the greater BR area last year, the cops certainly have their priorities straight

Is SE LA the only area in the country that calls them brake tags? When I read someone say brake tag online I always expect them to have the most yat or chalmette accent.

Rand Purvis Tire and Service on HWY 16 in Denham Springs. I bought a really dark-tinted Pontiac last year and the guys didn't even check the tint.

Brake tags are ONLY in Orleans Parish. Everyone else gets a registration sticker. That is only because NOLA started it before the state did

In Orleans Parish it is a brake tag and was around before the state began issuing inspection stickers.

A Yat will always say brake tag even if they move to California.

I thought an expired inspection sticker was a secondary offense, and you couldn't be pulled over for that. You could only get a ticket if you got pulled over for something more serious.

Usually if you get a ticket for it, go to court and show proof that you got a new one and they will reduce it to a seat belt violation.

Anyway, the glue on mine was too weak, and it fell off. I assume it's still valid, even though it fell off a couple of years ago.
