Why did the cop not ticket a expired registration vehicle instead posted a sticker on car saying they have 72hours to move they should have been towed?

A vehicle just sitting with an expired registration is not a violation of the law. If the police officer had witnessed the vehicle in operation with an expired registration, then there would be a legal violation. Even if the vehicle wasn't there a couple hours earlier, the police officer has no way of knowing for sure that it was driven there, unless they actually saw it in operation. However, an abandoned vehicle, or a vehicle parked illegally, has the same status regardless of the registration.
