What ever an owners personal reasons, the State is baseing it's case on "taxes". And they do seem to have a "case". I do concur that in many of these cases it had more to do with getting the car "licensed" in some way rather than avoid taxes. But I would not rule out the "extra benefit" of paying lower taxes while there at it!

An accusation is just that, maybe it's false, maybe it aint. The good news is that many (most?) of the individuals will not be prosecuted as the case seems to hinge on a "bigger fish".

I suspect "taxes" are indeed a big part of this picture on an individual basis.
