Expired plate ticket in indiana

My car registration plate expired on August 15 but never got renewal notice from the state of Indiana for the year 2008. I got pulled over in Indianapolis and given a ticket for $75 on Dec 4 2007. I told officer that I never got the renewal notice and since it's still 2007 I will get it registered at the end of dec and officer told me that BMV has stopped sending the notices. The very same day I got my plate re registerd and found out from BMV employee that they have not stopped sending the notices. Should I fight or pay the ticket, If I pay the ticket then how could that affect my insurance and anything else. Thanks for your help.

Re: Expired plate ticket in indiana

It's your responsibilty to get it renewed on time, not the BMV's. So, you can't wine the case at trial. I doubt it will have any impact on your insurance.
