My law teacher in high school taught us to keep our beer locked in the trunk and deny entry unless presented with a warrant. I believe the exact statement to give was "Officer, I respectfully decline your request to look in my trunk. However, if you believe you have the legal right to do so, I will not oppose you."Blind spots, LOL.
My 11th grade business law teacher
(who retired to AZ and joined Sheriff Joe's posse!)
did not merely warn us callow youts that we think should twice
about sticking one of those translucent <name of college>
decals on our rear windows. Because cops have been pleased to
issue "obstructed vision" tickets for them.
He even warned us not to hang our HS graduation tassel from our rear-view mirror.
Because cops loved handing out obstructed vision tickets for that.
"Your Honor, defendant killed a dozen nuns escorting two dozen kindergartners
because his vision was obscured by the frayed piece of string that he negligently dangled
from his rear view mirror, thus blocking his view of the entire crosswalk".

In today's fast-moving society it boils down to,
"I don't consent to any searches".
Politenessman language means that afterwards they'll try to claim you "consented".

Medway now scans it when you go to the dump

No idea. I have the sticker so I can help my dad; the vette's no good for hauling trash. My understanding is that everything in that town is constantly getting more expensive. But at least when we've gone by the last couple times they've had a couple guys working the entrance, and they have a handheld scanner that makes sure the sticker is still active.
Wow, that’s nuts!! Our stickers just say town and have a number, we ain’t fancy. If you look like you’re not from here they may ask you, but nobody is there to bust balls. My wife’s mini van has a sticker but I haven’t bothered to get one on this truck I got a year ago!!
First one free, then others $15 ea. The sticker used to be included with your mailing of the curbside chronicle, but now you a sticker at the transfer station so they can scan you into the system.
We require a town dump sticker, actually let me rephrass that, a town compost facility sticker*. Whenever I refer to our towns compost facility ad the dump people seem to get angry.
Either way, whenever I need to enter the dump I simply peel the sticker off half the protector thing and stick it on my windshield. When I'm done at the dump I take the sticker off my windshield and put it back on the protector paper. Takes 1 second to put it on my windshield and 1 second to take it off every time.

I have Rockport resident stickers (property owner qualifies as resident) for my cars and the instructions explicitly state they are not valid if attached by any other means than using the adhesive on the sticker for direct attachment to the window, and that tape or any mechanism of temporary attachment renders the sticker invalid (presumably only until it is properly affixed). The town is very protective of stickers since they don't want outsiders, extended family members who visit, etc. getting stickers which allow use of the resident parking lots for the many downtown homes and businesses without parking - and they know the game of "pass a sticker around".
The parking stickers (but not the dump ones .... I think) have a blank area in which the license plate of the vehicle they are issued to is written before it is sent to the recipient.
I only get up there every couple of weeks or so, but I have been advised the transfer station is the center of community social life. My wife and I are eagerly awaiting our garbage stickers so we can become members of the community. If I get bored going up there with the wife, I'll look into Cape Ann Sportsmens.
Don't shoot me, it's only a dump sticker!

Yes, police can pull you over for hanging an air freshener in your car
Minnesota, where Daunte Wright was fatally shot by police, is one of several states that prohibit hanging items from vehicles' rearview mirrors on the grounds that they could obstruct the driver's vision.
