Nothing baffling about it. The Commonwealth of MA is just that --
making everyone's wealth common by extorting as much of it as they can
in any way possible to redistribute to the legislature.

Its amazing the variation between states, in MA you'd have gone directly to
jail do not pass go they collect $200 (probably substatially more). When I
bought my 240D it was in New Jersey. The dealership was entirely willing to
issue temp tags once I put insurance on. A MA insurance company cannot insure a
car without you getting a real MA tag. MA will not recognize temp tags of any
kind, in theory (although I've never heard of it) somebody driving in MA with a
temp tag can be pulled over, their car impounded and they can spend the night
in jail... I checked this with the state, there is no reciprocity and no
willingness to recognize other state's temp tags. Baffles me.
