Well, I gor a letter yesterday, from our local Dpmt of Natural Resources, which is the Agency which handles boat permits, and fishing/hunting permits, etc. To my surprise, it was a ticket for $100.oo, and the reason; " Year Permit incorrectly located ".
I went to the Police Precint where the Policeman who gave me the ticket works ( He gave me the ticket when the boat was at the dock ).
They say the permit is supposed to be placed after the registration numbers and not before, see the attached picture. I asked them to show me the written Law and they showed me a printed card which shows the Article they used, it states " Permit shall be placed
"( Proximo )" to the numbers". It does not say after, or before, it says "proximo".
I looked at the Dictionary and for "proximo", it has two answers;
1- In the proximity of...
2- Inmediate after of...

So, depending on which definition they use, it`s right or wrong.

I am sure I can fight this on a court and get it dismissed, because of the definition, but the point of this thread is;

I BELIEVE THIS POLICEMAN COULD GIVE ME A CITATION AND EXPLAIN THIS TO ME, INSTEAD OF GIVING ME A TICKET FOR SOMETHING SO SIMPLE.

sounds like they are on a money making ticket producing kick. I would ask for a court date and plead not guilty for the reason you suggest as the law being vague or non-specific as to exact placement.
oh yea after you win thank the officer for the great service he is performing in society.

DING DING DING DING!!! The nail has been hit on the head. How petty can you get? A hundred bucks is not chump change. I can think of so many ways that officer could better serve the public than this. Ridiculous!

Good luck on getting this dropped....let us know.
 
Does that mean that it was expired? Or that you did not have one? Or he could not read it? That is one of the most petty things I have ever heard of...
Glad I didn't have that one!!!
