Last May, my wife and I bought a used Porsche Boxster from a dealer in NH and drove it back home to North Dakota. We could have titled it here in ND before we left, but I didn't want to buy the car before I saw it. The dealer put a temporary NH tag on it and off we went. Two days later, driving through Cheboygan, MI, we were pulled over by the police. The officer asked where our license plate was. Apparently, the cardboard temporary NH tag had gotten wet and had blown off somewhere between Nashua, NH and Cheboygan, MI. All that was left of it was a little cardboard under the two screws. He looked over our paperwork, and didn't give us a ticket. We bought a sharpie at a hardware store in Mackinaw City, took the plastic dealer tag off the front of the car, wrote the temporary NH tag number on the back side of it, and fastened it to the rear of the car. We made it all the way back to Bismarck without further incident.
