I’ve never understood that about America. How can you leave the dealership without a license plate. In the UK if you don’t have a plate you’re not on the road.
At least until a couple years ago, California you could drive without a plate for a couple months. I’m not sure how that really worked tbh, like what would happen if you were pulled over ECT.
Now you must get a temp paper plate right as you leave the lot.

I think now they give you those paper plates? Not ideal, but I see them a lot, flapping in the winds.

You get the paperwork folded up and taped to your windshield. Thats what you would present if you got pulled over to prove you owned the car.
Vermont has (or had?) handwritten paper plates. Like if you imagine dealer plates, just messily written in sharpie and taped in the window.
As fake as they look to begin with, if you get close enough to read them, they’re almost always expired.
I’ve never heard of this speaking as an American. I’ve always seen temporary plates used.
