No more mail, please

The idea was to keep Seattleites from dodging a required monorail tax, but a seemingly simple requirement that people register their cars using their primary residential address sparked an unexpected furor, the P-I reports today. A lot of people apparently don't want to have mail sent to their homes anymore, citing concerns about mail and identity theft.

The requirement has been suspended while the state Department of Licensing upgrades its computers to let vehicle owners list alternate mailing addresses on their registrations.
