Dont let your insurance laps

Jul 23, 2005 3 Replies

I have a 96 lt4..... Love it. Always think about trading up to a c5 but never acutally jump.



Anyway, I did not receive my insurance bill ( it came, it was in the pile with all the stuff I don't get around to opening).



Now I have a letter from the DMV to pay $600 bucks or turn in my plates for 60 days.



Serves me right.....



So dont let this happen to you.



I just drove ( illegally since I don't have insurance) to the car wash. Filled up the car, detailed the interior... put it in the garage and put the cover on it. Very sad.



You mean a 600 buck fine from the DMV because you accidently let your insurance lapse? What State are you in?

If so, you may be able (don't wait around to find out ) file for a hearing before a judge, show him your insurance and ask him to dismiss the fine. Bones

Normally, Insurance Companies send multiple notices that your insurance is due / lapsed.

=========================== Try that in Maryland.... where a 600 dollar "fine" would be considered cheap... Especial;ly if you let your insurance lapse and also forgot to remove your licence plates from the vehicle car and physically return them to the DMV....
