It's true, when I used to live in MD, I had a 914 w/ historic tags. I was moving to a new home only 3 miles away, and my daily driver was out of commission, so I was moving stuff with the 914 (yeah, fail, I know. ).

Anyhow, Ft. Detrick was right in the middle of this 3 mile drive, and I must have driven past it 100 times in 3 days while moving stuff. On the 3rd day, an MP at the base entrance pulls me over. While he didn't write me a ticket, he gave me a stern warning about how he's seen me going back and forth for several days now, and it's illegal to use a historic car as a daily driver.
