My boat trailer tags were up for renewal this month ($160). There has been a big discussion on TF about whether we should purchase Maine Tags over Md. Tags. It seems they are cheaper and they are good for 5 years instead of two
Well I decided to be a good Marylander and renew at the DMV today. I took my notice, filled out the information and stood in the "information" line

. About 10 minutes into it, an employee announces anyone for renewals could follow her to a kiosk for tag renewal. Yes

. Only took about 2 minutes and I had my new sticker in hand.
I came home, put my registration in my truck and took the sticker to my trailer. I walked to the left rear side, no tag

Ok, maybe the tag is on the other side
![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
Nope, no tag on trailer

Went back to the left rear and sure enough the plastic bracket is broken off

I have no idea how long it has been missing.
Back to DMV I go with my story. It cost me another $20 for new tags and a much longer wait!
Check your trailer tonight, see if your tags are still there
