Another TxDMV Loophole Allows Unsafe Cars to Get Temporary Tags --
But now, law enforcement officials tell NBC 5 Investigates they are seeing more cars that have not passed a state inspection but have 30-day permits, a type of temporary paper license plate tag that can be issued by a county tax office, typically to drivers who are waiting on title paperwork.But NBC 5 Investigates has learned most tax offices do not ask for proof that the car was inspected.
“I think every time that we find a loophole, we have to do everything in our power to shut it down,” Ramirez said.Meanwhile, paper tags continue to flow to cars that have not been inspected. NBC 5 checked the VIN number on the car and found it has not passed a safety inspection in more than 2 years. So, it's not legally on the road.
As NBC 5 has reported, drug cartels and human traffickers often use fraudulent temporary tags to mask the ownership of vehicles and evade law enforcement. And, police fear bad guys who once bought fraudulent tags on the black market -- are now turning to tax offices to get tags instead.
