Ok, say there is someone traveling to Michigan to enjoy our lakes and spend some money.....they are trailering a boat from out of state. A state that does not require trailer plates (Tennesee, Wisc, etc.).
What is this person supposed to do when they get here? Get a temp registration? Get a Mi trailer plate?
How is this supposed to work?
I have been pulled over before with a Tennesee boat for not having trailer plates. I explained that Tennesee doesnt require them. The officers reply was "Ok, but Michigan does"....He didnt know what I was supposed to do either.
Does anyone else?
For the record the officer let me go, I am just wondering what Michigan is thinking by enforcing their plate laws on an out of state trailer and boat?
A friend is town filming on St Clair and he got pulled over tonight on the way to his hotel with a Wisc boat, no trailer plate required. He was issued a ticket from a Macomb County Sheriff. Even though he had registration for the boat (which the officer never asked for).....
Wondering....
