growling about CA DMV shady practices [1/2] 

California went on my shitlist this week when they sent me notices in the mail about my not registering my vehicles with the DMV.

Vehicle registration is an opt-in thing. You only have register vehicles you plan to drive on public roads in the state. My vehicles no longer reside in CA, my registration should be to WA now.

Regardless, the CA DMV sent me notices that they were going to take me to collections for... not registering my vehicles there.

Literally. "You didn't pay this opt-in fee for vehicles no longer in our state so we're going to forcibly garnish your wages for the balance we think you should have to pay plus late fees -- for something you have no legal requirement to opt into."

I want to set fire to things. >..<
