Well after all of the crap I went through last year with the CA. DMV you'd think I had enough sense to stay off of their radar. Well after my Jeep stranded me last March with a possible bad flywheel and starter. Turn out it is a bad flywheel (another thread). Well being busy and having other vehicles to drive. I did not drive her much to not at all. So I had her parked outside my house on the street Smogged and registered. Since I was not driving my wagon I moved the liability insurance to one of my other cars for the time being. Well I went to AAA to renew my registration on my Wagon. To keep her up to date, as well I am getting ready to put her back on the road. I pay $83.00 then the AAA clerk says 'The computer will not give me your registration. Says your registration was cancelled by the DMV for no insurance'. WHAT!!! She tell me I need to call this number thanks for your cash next. I call and sure enough there is a new law that says the DMV will suspend you registration if your insurance company notifies them you canceled, moved or went deliquent on your insurance. I know it not just a Jeep thing but it is for me. Arrghh I love the DMV!!!

Never had any problem here in Michigan. I know of a few people that drop their PLPD when they put there car in storage, including me. As long as your not driving it I don't see why they should give a rats !There are those that have and those that will.

I've had arizona dmv suspend mine, even though I had current insurance. Didn't cost me anything, but the two times it happened, I had to sit there for an hour or so each time. I can understand their position, but they treated me like a criminal. I hate the DMV1980 Wagoneer 360 Tf727, NP219, TFI, exhaust, CS144 Alt, Taurus Fan.

yup, all ins companies now automatically notify the DMV when a lapse or cancel of insurance. it helps get the douches that buy one month of insurance to register the vehicle (and get a card for 6 to 12 months to show cops). not that it stops them from doing that, but now if they get pulled over or in an accident and have no registration they might get their crap impounded. (they can also suspend your license ).
i think its great, hopefully it will help punish (or at least make it miserable) for the a-holes that drive with out insurance.If it aint broke, fix it 'till it is.

It stops nothing, like gun control, only punishes the law abiding, its already illegal to do this in about every state, just enforce the law instead of adding more tax draining brueacrats, hold people responsibe.......DDs

I am very much pro gun, and gun laws are nothing like this little law. Having insurance doesnt make you a possible criminal because you went with the wrong company.

you missed my point Stuka, reread my post, the laws are on the books, just enforce them, its a good law, you just dont need the additional complications mentioned in the original post, and yes it is like gun control---which is nothing more than more people controlDDs
