Auto tabs in Washington used to all expire on December 31 every year. I remember my dad getting the new tabs in December and thinking the DOL was completely crazy when he read the instructions, which were similar to these on the back of my recent tabs:
Especially “DO NOT APPLY IN FREEZING WEATHER!”. We lived in Colville. In December in the 1960’s it rarely was above freezing. There was snow on the ground. We had an unheated garage. I recall watching him use a blowtorch to warm the license plate up to get it warm enough so the tabs would stick!
