I live in eastern Long Island, and this is a region whose character is being destroyed by a huge influx of Central and South Americans. They learn all the tricks from those who came before them, and clearly, getting NC plates is one of the most common ways of avoiding NY registration AND having to purchase liability insurance. One woman (Latina, of course) was caught in Patchogue, NY where she alone had sold over 200 NC license plates to fellow illegals. These inexperienced, uninsured drivers are jeopardizing the safety of those who really DO have a right to live here. WHY is NC allowing this?
