Part 9/10:
While enforcement has waned, and legislative measures have further reduced policing options for minor violations, the underlying problem persists. The state admits ignorance about the true scope of unregistered vehicles on the road, which impairs the ability to address safety concerns comprehensively.
The situation reflects a broader philosophical debate about law enforcement's priorities: should minor infractions be policed strictly, or should focus shift to more serious violations? Critics argue that neglecting minor violations like expired tabs could erode respect for laws and potentially embolden more reckless behavior.
