Boating All Out

The buyer still has to come up with a tag and the insurance is tied to
that tag. I can't speak for everywhere but the wrong tag on a care
around here is a "felony stop". ( get out of the car, lay on the
ground, don't make any fast moves) The assumption is you are up to no
good, car theft at the minimum but you could be a drug courier or
driving a getaway car.

This all sounds like a paranoid fantasy to me. Most illegals are going
back and forth to work. They avoid doing stupid things and are just
regular people trying to get by. Sure, sometimes there are hardened
criminals doing dirty deeds. This has nothing to do with most people.

Most people just buy insurance and do things by the book.
Co-ordination between insurance companies and DMV's have no doubt
caused some people to buy insurance when they would have previously gone
uninsured.
Some of those systems can probably be gamed too.
Illegals most often just ride with a legal motorist.
But anybody who doesn't care about the law for whatever reason can buy a
used car on the street and steal tags. Happens all the time.
The smarter ones avoid vanity plates like CUDDLY4U.
Just go with something like 154 823L.
Cops aren't running tags enough to affect that.
But it could happen.
The tollway cameras and red light cameras could be advanced to go real
time and notify nearby cops of hits on stolen tags and lack of insurance
coverage.
Matter of time and politics.
Some would consider it too "Big Brother."
There's already squawking about red-light cameras.
I have mixed feelings about it.
Might not bother me if I was running the show.
Don't know yet, as it hasn't affected me and I don't know enough about
it.
