I ran across a story that Steve Job's 2007 silver Mercedes SL55 AMG (see photo below) had never been registered yet he had driven it since 2006 and had put 21,800 miles on it.
"A search of traffic records confirms that he successfully avoided plate-related fines" said Paula Skier of automotive data and consulting firm R.L. Polk & Co in the LA Times. Polk runs Carfax.
A defensive driver if there ever was one. (1) He drove a safe vehicle. (2) He limited his driving. (3) He had to be a low-key and observant driver to avoid being stopped. (4) A vehicle with no dents and scratches can get by more easily without a tag than otherwise.
I guess we might give him a posthumous Cowboy Safety award!
