My entire adult life, I’ve heard various people tell me that I need to score my tabs after putting them on “so no one can steal them”. I’ve known many people like myself that find this idea absurd, and don’t bother with scoring. How did this idea become mainstream advice?
My dad taught me to score them. I find it strange, scoring them prevents the supposed thief from being able to get the tag off cleanly, so they wouldn’t want to apply it to their car because it’d look sketchy?
Unlike your totally normal and not at all now damaged and sketchy looking tags?
The ones we’ve gotten have always come pre cut, if you want to remove one without tearing uses a flat razor, you can even dig into the paint on the license plate, the company that makes them probably makes extra to do this step and is probably the only reason it’s still done.
