I believe Texas is one of the loophole states where you can get temporary plates online. People use it to get around CT's ridiculous DMV prices.

Could be a cop who works on those types of crimes perhaps? Like their job is literally to hunt down child molesters.

Once, and it was pretextual in order to see if I was DUI-ing.

Yes sorta. Brother was DD and got a front plate ticket at a dui checkpoint. He was 100% sober. Also got a failure to notify dmv of address change since he didn’t have a sticker with his new address on his license. The rest of us were drunk. Thanks New Haven PD.

Two years so far so good.
Yes I know I’m breaking the law. I’m just lazy and think it looks better even though my car is nothing special.

Take a second, breathe in and pause to reflect on what you just said. “If a kid wants to avoid inappropriate sexual interaction.” Do you know any humans, infants, teens, children, adults, senior, etc, who would welcome inappropriate sexual contact towards them? The answer is NO, CLEARLY NOT. Now that you realized how god awfully stupid of a comment that is, let’s move on with ridding of pedos

If a kid wants to avoid inappropriate sexual interaction, statistics say he should avoid churches and boy scout groups.

Why have you not switched providers several months/years ago? They've been overcharging for years while less expensive third party suppliers have been available to you forever (~10 years?)

How many years ago? Just wondering.
Edit: lol, I love how someone is going through and downvoting everyone in here. It's just a question.

We can go on the website perfectly fine, we can pay the bill online with no problem but when we go to access our bill the document does not pull up and instead a blank page appears stating “sorry we expected an unexpected error” - this is happening on our cell phones with data and laptops with WiFi so not a browser issue

3 different vehicles, 5 years, no pull over. Knock on wood.

I can view my bills anytime I want.
Eversource is a lot of things, but your web browser problems aren't on them.

I’ve long held a theory that if you were able to combine Hartford & New Haven you’d get one of the best smaller cities in the country. Hartford brings state government, large companies/jobs, Trinity College and good hospitals. New Haven brings Yale, museums, culture, music venues more jobs in different industries and great food.
Alas, they’re 30 miles apart.

Reply to comment by volanger in CT among the states with the highest tax burden by Kingdavid100
I mean, when I got really sick and a permanent disability diagnosis all those taxes helped a lot. Same thing with the husky D coverage. I’d probably be homeless in a wheelchair if I lived in a couple southern states. CT really took care of me when i got sick.

Yes, but only after coming off the highway in Bridgeport. I was in an old Porsche (944 so nothing too fancy), and a cop pulled me over because of the no front plate but was nice and just gave me a warning. I ignored it and almost 20 years later the car still has no front plate. At the time my dad figured it was maybe a cop who suspected the car had been stolen, because I was coming from Fairfield in a Porsche, but who the heck knows. Pretty sure cops in Fairfield used to hang out by the Bridgeport border and go out of their way to pull over people of color who had just entered the town (Fairfield). This was something someone told me a long time ago. I’m white if it matters (probably mattered in the traffic stop)
