That would seriously surprise me, why would they care? Asking as a retired LBPD officer, I know I wouldn't have given 2 cents.Ive heard from havasu pd they look for it. But ive nevr seen any tickets give.
Roll the bones...
Where does it say that? They tell you that at the MVD but I can't find anything related to breakfast or dinner.Mine was roughly 500 in 2019
Full street plate deal.
If you go with the plate that means you can go on tbe street trail to trail your looking for trouble
Stop for breakfast etc, that needs full street
That's why. You're over 1800# and MVD knows it. You have to pay full VLT.1869lbs..

And AZ DMV basically tells you not to pay extra.

And there is no 5 year registration

Stopping someone for having an unregistered vehicle is easy probably cause, and a person who doesn't register their car also doesn't have insurance and probably no license. Cops don't care about revenue.Same reason they care when your registration on your car is out of date.. revenue.
The LHC MVD is one of the places that told me they are enforcing it more now.
Not being a smartazz but how would they enforce it? I don't think they could just pull you over and check your registration or maybe they make something up?Same reason they care when your registration on your car is out of date.. revenue.

I'm 51% primarily off road and the other 49% I can drive on the street. I'm registered and insured like any other vehicle.
If I ride 50 miles off road and 10 miles on road that would be primarily off road. How is the officer going to determine that?
Been doing it for 15 years even with our ATV's before RZR was even a word.

I know of one person that got stopped but officer let him go. Said it was happening in Bullhead, Havasu, and Parker.
This is what he had to say,
Talked my way out of it. Our DMV goes out of their way to explain to us that this tab is NOT legal for full-time over the road use. Told to me over and over. He was going to cite me for invalid / improper / missing road tabs. He said car tabs do not say OHV. He's not wrong there. Now we live in a small town with a large off-road pool of OHV's, half of our group has been cited for improper tabs. Just saying.

I thought they were eliminating the "MC" in the plate to show the diff between primarily off road and on road. How else could they tell?
I doubt they would go to a restaurant parking lot and start pulling plate numbers.
On another note I also heard the city council is tired of citizen complaints on the noise and drinking.
Rangers have been seen spying on large drinking parties in the desert
Wouldn't surprise me if they start DUI checkpoints by the Bunker Bar.
I agree on the dumb stuff. I see guys all the time with their whip lights on. Just a sign to say pull me over.
Why would i get pulled over after leaving a restaurant? There is NOTHING that says i can't go to a restaurant. Before during or after a trail.
Someone needs to show me why it's illegal. I already showed state law that says primarily off road and on road. NOTHING says only to and from trail or crossing streets. NOTHING about going for ice cream.
We cruise down town Williams all the time and stop to eat and drink. Police are there all the time. We park across the street from the police station.
Even the car wash is busy. So you can't wash your ride either? View attachment 1151355 View attachment 1151356
I wonder what the ticket would even cost. I've told you before that even if i had to pay a fine I've saved thousands over the years.
I think for my rzr it's about $135 a year now if i went full on road. It depreciates 16% per year. But I think my insurance would go way up.
We use ours but if it cost $500 a year just to register I don't think we would own one. Not for the miles we put on it.
I just checked registration cost for a base Pro R 4 at $42k. $705 for the first year lol
The lady there was all over me about it. Told me if I wasn’t on my way to the dirt or on my way back from the dirt I would get a ticket unless I chose primary on road. I read backwards and forwards through every actual law or description I could find online to no avail. Sure felt like a shakedown but I paid for two years and felt a little better about it.Same reason they care when your registration on your car is out of date.. revenue.

It’s not a measure of proving 51/49 its act backing up the what you do … so say 3500 miles on the machine PROVE that you did 2500 miles off road… almost impossible!Where does it say that? They tell you that at the MVD but I can't find anything related to breakfast or dinner.

You have a higher probability of getting pulled over than me. You will go out for the margarita where I don't like those and stay home.Yes the plate looks different. Looks more like a motorcycle plate.
What ive heard...now this could be bullshit, and ive never ever seen it happen, is lets say your parked on McCulloch, a cop driving by can see the difference in plates.
IF you have the trail to trail plate obviously you are not doing that.
Will a cop actually question you? Probably not.
But can a cop question you, yes.
Once the questions start i can go any direction. Horn? Windsheild? Insurance? Blah blah.
For me, the added 400 was worth it.
The damn mirrors on the can am were $1000! So its all relevant.
Now, my sister has her can am at home in buckeye. The drive it like a daily car. The full street plate is a no brainer
