We had a similar situation between Washington and Oregon several years back. Oregon was like $30 fee yearly for any non commercial car or truck. Washington had a flat fee PLUS a value based excise tax. Many would establish a mailing address in Oregon as a way to avoid.
One year on a holiday weekend they set up cameras that recorded out of state plates leaving the greater Seattle area, then recorded out of states coming back into the same area at the end of the holiday, caught a ton of cheats.
The Highway Patrol also set up on south bound on ramps in the Vancouver, WA, area at 5:00 am to 8:00 am and pulled over Oregon plated cars and checked their registration. That resulted in the catching of many cheats.
I agree, wish they would go after big business with the same zeal, you would think the results would be worth it.
