Obtain a sticker scraper from the auto parts store and scrape off the inspection stickers when they expire. The traffic fine for not having a sticker is the same as having an expired one, but your apartment management and tow service can't make the call as to whether it's expired if it's not there. Apparently, this is a lazy way of making sure tenants don't store inoperable or unused vehicles on the property.

That's actually clever as hell. I leave them on because usually a cop only gets a glance at that part of your window, so I'd rather them see that there are stickers and go on about his or her day. Also, unfortunately, the verbiage in my lease agreement states that my car needs to have up-to-date stickers or they can remove the vehicles. You are right it is a lazy way of keeping inoperable cars out of the complex.
