There are many references to the DMV soldiers in jack boots showing up armed with automatic machine guns and tanks and hauling Cobras and miscreant owners off to San Quentin, but there are no first person "It happened to me" accounts. So the draconian measures threatened by some overzealous DA or states attorney or whatever he was remain that - threats.

PS. Haus, you can continue to keep your head buried in the sand but there's a chance "the system" will eventually catch up and you'll be forced to go through the draconian SB100 process. Good luck.
As someone who has been here for 20+ years, I post the following:

There are threads on here about getting caught and fined by the CA DMV/MVS. There is at least one person who used to be here, he was in law enforcement, he was also the cause of the whole "Titles Unlimited" meltdown that started with California. There was a time, where DMV/MVS personnel openly trolled and participated on this forum, and others. Don't think so, think it can't happen to you (not pointing fingers at any one person, just leaving it out there as a general statement for the next person who reads this thread in the archives in another 20 years), it can.
