    Mmmmm...NC has these. Usually, they just ask for your license, look at your tags and send you on your way. I think once I was asked for my proof of insurance, too. No big deal.

    They have to do something in Fl. No state inspection means people can get away with driving anything until they get caught. I lived in Orlando for 10 years and could tell local cops didn't pay much attention to what you drive. My same car in MA will NEVER pass an inspection.

    Been doing this in Australia for years.... & sometimes I think that driving a modified car to the police they think the automotive enthusiast is a easier target. Because catching real criminals like drug dealers & burglars is a hard task!

    Bad thing is I can't find my registration so if I pulled over, I will be SOL. But I am going to apply for a custom Tag in a few months since I have to renew in June. So I not far away from that time.

    the only downside i see to this is traffic issues

    Keep your car in proper order and have your papers on you like you should, and no problems
