Drivers are forgetting to renew their license plates and its showing – the late fees are piling up at the Secretary of States Office.

Car owners paid almost $2 million in March on late fees after forgetting to get their new sticker. The late fees are spiking after the state has stopped mailing renewal notices in order to save money.

The amount from the first quarter of the year is more double from the year before, when $2.2 million was collected between January and March.
