okay i know i have newly posted threads in this section but is whatever. i am going to school soon in florida and have a couple questions. ive looked online and asked a few people that live in FL and they have all told me Florida had no state inspection. my question is that if i move down there for school will i have to change my title, registration and license. and if i don't do that would i have to come all the way up to va just to get inspected and other dmv issues.

ill be down there for 4 years as a student. just wanting some advice efore i go so i don't end up getting tickets.

id register in florida, dont worry about the sticker, and re-register in virginia when you get back and get your inspection sticker.

or

rock VA tags down in florida, and than just come up here and get it inspected when you can. chances are they dont even know you are suppose to have an inspection sticker in VA down in Florida. i wouldnt rock an "10" inspection sticker tho in 2011 down there lol, take em off.

jdmchef

yeah i had thought about that. but say for instance i get pulled over in florida would they try and say anything about my sticker or do they not keep up with other states

ಠ__ಠ

Nope i lived in florida for a while and had VA plates with no inspection sticker and they never said a word, as long as registration is good your ok, but if i were you i would go ahead and register in Fl since their vehicle laws are less strict

Two of my vehicles are registerd in Texas, and I haven't had them inspected in the last 5 years... I just left the sticker on until it expired then scraped it... no one's said shit about it....

Then again, if you register it in FL, then you won't have to pay that damned Personal Property Tax......

jdmchef

okay cool. very true about taxes i think ill just go ahead and do that

go with florida.

Strip the car to a bare shell with a seat and the drivetrain and rock it like that, cause florida dont give a fuck.

rtcarlin

But I think if he's in North FL, he'll need at least 26" rims and if he's down South FL, he'll need some sort of fuzzy accessory for the dash or rear view..... It's like the law or something....

jdmchef

yeah il have to get some daytons and a fuzzy dashmat for were im going.

Register your car to Florida and don't EVER look back.

You don't need front tags in Florida, so... yeah.
Florida insurance is cheaper than VA, whoop whoop.
You don't need to pass emissions on cars 10 (or 12) years old or older.
Chicks will think you're cool with Florida tags.
No auto property taxes in Florida.
If you're a Florida DL holder and get summoned to jury duty, you tell them you're out of state and will never have to go.

Florida > Virginia
