Last time they claimed this, they got their asses sued off because people had turned in the plates but Public Safety didn’t cancel them in a timely manner.


Canceling insurance the day you turn in the plate is acceptable. The plate not getting cancelled for weeks afterward, not so much.

I had a guy come into my office who tried to turn in his plate, but was told "that plate was turned in a year ago." The guy had the damn plate in his hand. It took three trips and a lawyer letter to get them to realize that it was physically impossible for him to have the correct plate in his hand if it had truly been turned into the DMV.

I sold my car out of state and this happened. I move back 10 years later and my license was flagged and I potentially owe $600 in fines. Every time I try to call the number to contest this it’s a three hour wait and I give up.
