    If you are driving on expired plates, you'll be pulled over. State laws vary, but basically they'll find out that the plates are false, and you will be arrested and your car impounded.

    In my state, it's a felony.

    However, also in my state we have a "retirement program" for old polluting cars. If you can't afford to make it smog-compliant, the state will buy it from you. You might check to see if your state has that.
