Similar to the CHP, the DMV is another criminal organization operating in the fiefdom known as California. The constant reissuing of plates rather than just keeping track of who has what freakin plate creates a situation where it's less of a hassle to drive around with no plates then it is with only one.
But stamping out new plates gives California's oversized prison population something to do. It also saves the USC-grads-cum-meter-maids the hassle of having to walk the ten feet to look at the rear of the car when they're writing tickets. No one likes to walk in California.
Eslai, call over to Pioneer, maybe they have an idea.

Ummm... Any time I ever registered a car in California, it kept the same plates. The only time a car got new plates was if it was brand new or if it had never been registered in California. That's why my '74 911 still has the blue plates with gold letters... The '65 car I had was registered as non-operational... still got plates. When it was registered for operation, they just gave a new sticker. Did something change since I left CA five years ago?
