its simple, find out how the board of directors for the mvpa is doing to help the hobby, then do the exact opposite.... currently they are doing NOTHING to help pass laws to help the hobby or defending owners loosing there rights... so i step in... 5 wins in 3 years.
I am getting stuck on a fundamental incompetence of police/DMV out west. I am in Phoenix trying to get a police officer to sign a Florida DMV vin check and none of them will drive to my truck lot to do it so I can make a plate in Florida to drive it there.
Sheriff says lot is out of his jurisdiction, local PD tells me to drive it to DMV and StatePolice tells me to pay $80 a private company that does it but that is now not sure they can sign an out of state form. Besides, it is not a given, because in California I got a temporary moving permit because the lady at the DMV would not sign it either. These people are unbelievable.
This incredible incompetence and deferment of competence at every turn to another party is staggering. It is a violation of interstate commerce, imo. All these states making difficulties in registering MV or with incompetent Police told not to sign VIn checks are an absolute violations of interstate commerce - because commerce is a competency!
I cannot blame “capitalism” when government incompetence is what drives this sort of legal bribery and when government agents are so willing to say “I’m a bureaucrat, designed to be stupid or cowardly, someone else can do it better than I”.
it comes to the point that I am seriously considering starting a business of having vehicles registered in !exico, where maybe I find someone competent to sign stuff off for me. Besides, I bet down there they would love buying back MV, but it is unnerving to see key businesses like these potentially going South, to be diplomatic about the kinds of people they are.
By the way, I have zero problem like these with police in Florida or Indiana. Vin check?No problem! Heck, in Georgia the Sheriff will even come on military posts to talk to soldier wives whose husband they locked up downtown, investigating. It tells me that this anti-police movement is a dumbing down of police out west. There is something deliberate to it.
