> the number of cars with no license plate displayed at all is on the rise

I have noticed this too, and am curious if it is:

- DMVs being slow/understaffed or plates aren't available, but people need to drive

- conscious negligence of simply not registering your car and betting it won't be enforced

DMVs have been easily accessible and you can even make online appointments in my state since before pandemic, but I see plenty of cars driving without license plates or without paying the annual car taxes (i.e. registration fees seen via sticker).
