Why oh why can't we simply go to all electronic, or something significantly smaller.
I do not believe you are required to carry the registration receipt, unless it is a commercial vehicle (my memory may be failing me). The sticker itself is proof (windshield sticker on vehicle and sticker on plate of trailer). :tiphat:

That only works for anyplace that doesn't require showing a copy of your registration inside at a security desk. They don't come outside to check stickers.
Which places are those? I don't have any printed proof of registration AFAIK, and never been asked for such.

The two cars we brought when we moved were registered at the same time. The second year, I went down, got the stickers and put them on the windshields of the wrong car. This was discovered when I took them in for inspection the following year.
