Just Pass Me By

Today was a busy day, but surprisingly I am not stressing yet. I needed new license tab on my mini van at the time I decided it would be a good idea to transfer the title to me. I recently bought it and haven’t had the money to do that, plus the tabs. Lets face it no one wants to be at the DMV twice in one month…. It’s not a fun place to be even if the people who work their are great. Today there was no line, probably because I went in before 9am and the earlier the better.

Well the guy, I brought the car from got it from someone else… When I was asked if the guy on the form was the same person I bought the car from I said “NO. I bought it from my mechanic” The guy told me that it was sold to me wrong. Just wonderful…. He asked me how long I had the car and I told him since the date that on there. He told me it was title jumping. My first thought was great, I am going to get into trouble now, and I am was supposed to be well on my way to the hospital. Well he had a few more questions. I answered everything honestly, but some of the question I had to take in good faith, I was giving a true answer, because I didn’t know the questions. Oh well…

Next step was my tabs on the car. I had some questions because my husband was telling me I had until the 10 of the next month to get my tabs. I asked this questions, and was told that no it’s only till the last day of the month, you have 10 days to actually place it on your car. Well normally I put the new tabs on right away, I don’t give myself a chance to lose those things. I am figuring it could be ugly to replace it.

So if you are due for your license tabs don’t wait till last minute because a police officer can decide to give you a ticket and be well within their right to do so. If your out of state you definitely want your tabs all current because in another State the Police may not be as graceful as your police in your own State if your in a state that does that.
