The differance between CT an Ca is amazing. If there is no "tag" issued for either the windshield or the plate then you have no idea if the auto that you are driving next to is leagaly registered for the current year or if it has insurance or not.
In Ca you cant get your yearly tags unless you have proof of insurance. I.E. if you drop your insurance, the insurance company notifies the DMV that you have cancled your policy with them. If you get cought driving without insurance your auto can/will get impounded. Usually for 30 days and to get your auto back you have to show proof of insurance, pay the fine for driving without insurance and pay for towing + 30 days of storage. If you do not then the state sells your auto and keeps the money. If your auto is financed then you are still resposible for the loan (I believe).
A lot of these laws is the reason that my youngest son says that he will not ever live in CA again (unless the Navy transfers him back here). Even then his permanent residency for the Navy is now Florida.
