(COLORADO SPRINGS) --The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) along with other law enforcement agencies across the state are cracking down on expired car registration. Many law enforcement agencies along the Front Range are targeting expired vehicle registration and unregistered vehicle violations after receiving complaints from those who are following the law. "I mean, it's not really fair, but at least it looks better on my end if I have it done, because at least I'm safer in court or whatever," said Jordan Sweet, a local who spent the day at the DMV renewing his plate. People across Southern Colorado are fed up with people not paying their fair share. "It is just a frustration. And really listening to our community is incredibly important, I know it's a big thing on the Mayor's agenda as well as on mine. So, we wanted to be proactive about what our citizens were concerned about," said Colorado Springs Police Chief Adrian Vasquez. After receiving hundreds of complaints, Colorado Springs and Pueblo Police are teaming up with other law enforcement agencies like the Colorado State Patrol to crack down on expired tags from now through Saturday, Sept. 29, but they say the enforcement won't end there. "I see cars all the time without license plates or like they're just a sheet of paper with written stuff on them. I mean, I think I laugh at it personally, but I know they could get in trouble for it, so I'm just not the type to wait on it," added Sweet. CSPD said there is a 30-day grace period for expired tags, but there is no exception for temporary tags. "You must have the new registration or the permanent registration in place, unless you get an extension. If you have an expired tag and you get stopped, there's two types of violations--one is a city ordinance, and one is a state statute, you can be written for that expired tag under either of those it's a class B infraction, which is a fine only and that's going to be anywhere from about a $15 fine to $100 fine," said Chief Vasquez. He said part of the reason people are not updating their tags is because of how COVID affected DMVs. "I think back to the covid days, really, that's when DMV's sort of shut down and they were allowing, if you remember, the DMV actually put out a notification saying that we're not going to renew tags at this point in time because of COVID, and I think we just got used to that as a community," said Chief Vasquez. Although many people dislike going to the DMV, it's worth it to avoid paying for the ticket. "You might be the one who gets hit and then you'll be feeling some type of way if someone hits your car and doesn't have a plate. So, I think we should all have our plates registered," said Sweet. It's better to go in sooner rather than later, because there is a late fee for each month the car is not registered. There are 15 DMV locations across the Pikes Peak Region to update car registration.
