Governor Paterson Feels Motorists' Wrath

As reported yesterday, the New York DMV announced a money raising initiative to require 10 million license plates to each be replaced with a newly design NY plate at a cost of $25 per vehicle.  In 24 hours, the response has been loud and negative.  Don’t do it!

New York Governor David Paterson now says that he will re-consider this poorly-conceived money-grab.  Good chance it will die avoiding one of the most anti-Green measures that New York State has attempted in a long time.  Keep your fingers crossed.
