I have to agree with this. I walked into our DMV, not even knowing about the "ST" plates, and told them I needed to renew my plates for both of my boats and my 5x10 utility trailer. They didn't even give me the option of the other, asked for my money for the ST plates, gave me registration to go along with them, told me they are "lifetime", and sent me on my way.

DMV should know the laws, expectations, and allowances of the state, and issued me what they issued me. I didn't argue with them due to the cost, but this is what their Secretary of State workers issued me. If I get pulled over, my registration says "boat trailer" on it. I didn't type that up....it was issued by the state, by a state DMV employee. I don't feel as though I am being dishonest, as honesty and integrity is what I base my life on. I paid what was asked of me to pay by the state's trained employees, have the receipt and registration to prove it I did my part there, I hold insurance on my trailer that I'm pulling, have a state issued plate on the trailer that coincides with the VIN number on the trailer. I guess we'll have to see how it all plays out, if it ever does.
