Batch processing. They get files from the insurance companies and have to update their files.

That sucks they are going back so far. You could have committed a felony in 2004 and can't be charged due to statue of limitations.

Why is it a shakedown? Isn't it illegal to dive with no insurance? Everyone should have to carry 250/500

What is the deal here? I saw someone bitching about this on Facebook, something about him owing money on 2 cars that he sold years ago.

I don't even know what my old Louisiana DL is. From reading the other thread I'm almost positive I have one.

I left Louisiana for Texas years ago, sold my truck here and definitely didn't send anything to Louisiana. There's no way I'm going to get the letter if they sent it to my old LA address.

This is gonna be a nightmare.

I moved from LA to TX and sold my LA registered vehicle in TX. About 3 weeks later I get a letter mailed to my parent's address in LA from the DMV saying I had a lapse in coverage and owe money.

I mailed the DMV a copy of my insurance cancel letter from the ins. agency, and a copy of my bill of sale. The DMV sent me a letter about 2 weeks later saying the fines had been canceled.

If anyone can get a copy of their bill of sale and the insurance cancel letter they may be able to get the fee waived.

I don't understand what this is about.

They are saying that I can't be looked up because my insurance cancelled on a car I turned in 2 months ago and my wife's car we still have.

No idea what's going on.

I know a number of people who moved away, then back to Louisiana over the last few years & all of them had issues when getting their new LA driver's license once they returned to LA.
They moved to a new state, then obtained new license plates, DL, and insurance in the new state. However, the State of LA assumed the car was still in LA, but the insurance had expired, so a flag was placed on the person's record.
They then moved back to LA, go to obtain a new DL & register their vehicle(s), but were notified of the flag on their record. The person simply explained they moved out of state (they had proof because their current DL & other documentation was currently from that state), and in almost all of these cases the person at the OMV office simply cleared that flag and waived any fees.
It seems most of the current issues & fines are very similar except these people never moved back to LA & had that flag/fee waived.
It's obvious the OMV knew of the problem, otherwise they wouldn't delete the fees so easily when someone returned to the state.

This is the only reason it is being done:

State troopers get hefty back-to-back pay raises in 6 months


quote:

Dollars for the salary boost approved in January came from a fee increase on uninsured motorists that lawmakers passed last year. Money for the most recent raise comes from enhanced collection efforts of state Office of Motor Vehicle debt.


quote:

Starting salary for a State Police cadet grew from $35,610 last year to $46,610 in the current fiscal year, a 31 percent increase.

A sergeant with five years of experience saw his salary grow 24 percent, or $12,318. A rank-and-file trooper with 10 years of experience got a 28 percent boost of $14,393.

On the highest end, a State Police major — who oversees about 200 troopers across 20 to 25 parishes — with at least 22 years of experience received a 50 percent pay raise, totaling $46,895 and bringing the salary to $140,890.

I checked and I'm not showing any flags.

But, if something does come up for me in the future and if it goes back prior to 8/29/2005, I'm fricked because I lost all my records to 8 feet of water in my house in Lakeview.
