A Little Humor
I know what you're thinking. "Why do I have to renew my license plate every two years? My car doesn't change that often."
Well, I'm not sure why either. Maybe it's just so the DMV can make a little extra money. Or maybe it's so they can keep track of all the cars on the road. Who knows?
But one thing is for sure. If you don't renew your Texas license plate on time, you're going to be in trouble. So make sure you keep track of your expiration date and renew your plate on time.
And remember, if you're ever feeling stressed about renewing your license plate, just take a deep breath and remember that it's not the end of the world. There are plenty of other things to worry about.
