thats the vibe i got. especially when i asked her first name and she barked "deputy jones". i wanted to be smart and say "really? never knew ANYONE with the first name deputy! is that greek?"
like i said though, i just gave her a nice "fuck you" look and let it go. i have better things to do like post in atot. :biggrin:

Can't do that here, they will charge you massive late fees and make you register it for the previous year.
i might! like i said, everyone knows everyone in this town, so im sure ill see her somewhere. she actually looked kinda familiar to me, so maybe my dad knows her. he will like this story, thats for sure.
that cant be true... if they dont have proof you were driving, they cant charge you for just owning it :/

I've driven without a current registration because I was too broke to buy one before. Eventually I got caught too. Difference is I counted myself lucky for every day I didn't get caught. I never thought the cop who pulled me over was being a special kind of dick to little ol' innocent me. I felt like I was already ahead by the number of days I had driven without getting pulled over.
Every day you drove without getting pulled over is a day you were gifted by the universe itself. Getting pulled over was nature reasserting itself and correcting the imbalance. Seeing it any other way is being a colossal spoiled crybaby.

Well they do have proof, they pulled you over.
also don't they check miles during inspections? they could see if you were driving.
not that i know of, because you can park your car and not drive it. if you have a garage and keep it there, there is no law that says just because a title is in your name means you have to register it for driving.
thats because the cop wasnt a dick to you then. . big time. sure, if i would have fought back im sure she would have really made my day bad, but again i just dont know why she was a bitch before anything even happened. she clearly didnt get enough pussy the night before or something...

problem is you admitted previously to the cops being cool and letting you slkide knowing full well your regustration was expired.....there comes a time when enough is enough and it was that time for you.....sorry about your troubles!
i do get that. i knew my time was coming at some point, but like i said its just about as petty as jaywalking. what was $100 is now amost $300, and its just stupid. all she had to do was say "ill come see you in a week, and you better be caught up". trust me, she has plenty of time for a revisit.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Haven't seen a state yet that'll sorta forget a year's registration fees, incl. late fees, penalties, etc.
Good point, but you're forgetting you have to turn in your plate to effectively cancel the registration. Keep the plate, you're obligated to pay its fees, no matter how of a "scam" you think the fees are.
ok boys im done with the thread! first time i ever received an infraction in off topic for foul language! peace out, mother truckers!

Depends on the state, but MOST state laws say that if you aren't going to drive the car, you either have to register it as "non-operational" and you can NOT drive the car at all, or you pay the full registration fee for the year.
If you skip a year, you have to pay the full registration fee...PLUS the late fees. In California, the late fees add up quickly. (IIRC, after 90 days it's 160% of the registration fee...plus the annual fee.)
Pay me now...or pay me later...and if you choose "later," we'll also ticket you if we catch you driving.
Sounds like the $100 fee would have been cheaper than the ticket.

It's like when the bank gives you an over draft fee. Oh so you are broke? Well here, let me take more of your money you don't even have.

So if she had done that, would you have paid the registration then? If you somehow would be able to find the money in that case, why haven't you done it already? Move to AZ, I paid less than $125 for five years.
