Last spring, my car had an issue with its brakes as I was driving through Maryland. It got towed into Ft Meade while I sought another solution to travel the last several states to get home, and then disappeared forever. Fortunately my insurance company gave me a payout. Unfortunately, I had to spend one hell of a lot of time and effort challenging court cases because someone then decided to use my license plates to commit traffic infractions all summer.
I could only imagine if someone used my stolen tags to commit real crimes!
