> So, what is the whole story? Do you have an unfriendly nosey neighbour who complained to someone in authority? Who even knew the tire was low and the battery dead?
Actually Randy, no. All of my neighbors are very cool with the live and let live philosophy. I keep my property up, however I drive older, rust belt cars. Some can be quite unattractive at times, but are mechanically sound. The code enforcement officer in my town hasn't been able to enforce much in the last eighteen months because of the government reaction to a virus. So, eighteen months of pent up overzealous enforcement has been unleashed. As I stated earlier, I procrastinated on getting plates, and that was the primary cause. The mail is slow however, and they arrived today, after the cars were gone. They are and were technically legal. Without running the plate, the officer on hand wouldn't know that. My son informed him they were legal, but Barney Fife wouldn't have it. I am grateful I was not home. The situation would have escalated very quickly. I am off for the next three months. Target one on my mission list is the only emissions standard in the state of Indiana. Never underestimate the power of an extremely passionate man, with too much time on his hands.
