Maybe one day I'll even get to ride the stupid thing again.

So, when my motorcycle got impounded, I had this thought of "Hey, at least they didn't give me a ticket for not having my new tab on there!" ( It was helpfully attached to my fridge with a magnet at the time). Today I got a notice of how I haven't paid my citation for vehicle registration violation, even though I never got a copy of the ticket- I imagine it didn't stay attached to the bike. Or maybe it fell off during the tow to the impound lot. Gaaah. Gotta schedule a hearing to contest it. Never done that, should be exciting. Or not.

What do I need to prove that it was registered, and just didn't have the tab on there? Shouldn't they have a record, or should I dig up a copy of the check I used to pay it, or what?

ETA: The earliest I could get in for a hearing is January 21st. Onwards, to adventure!

Depending who you get in the hearing, you might just have to tell your story. That happened to me once, even though I was prepared with evidence. Just bring what you have and explain nicely what happened. Hopefully the person will be good. Also go early in the day before they get crabby because of dealing with dolts all day. It's worked for me...
