I also hate it because you used to be able to tell if cars were abandoned or stolen because of the sticker. It’s a problem with street parking because someone will dump their car for years and nobody will know until the tires flatten.

I actually called in a car at the commuter parking lot years ago because I realized the sticker was expired and all four tires were melted into the hot summer pavement and it was covered in spiderwebs. Parking enforcement had me tell them the VIN and license number and make and model, and it turns out they both belonged to a whole other car and it was a stolen vehicle. I hate giving DoFo money but God only knows what’s happened because of lack of regulation.
