Understanding Non-Operational Vehicle Status
If you own a vehicle that is not currently operational, it’s essential to understand how this status can affect your vehicle registration and any associated penalties. This article outlines the implications of non-operational status and what steps you need to take regarding outstanding fees.
What is Non-Operational Status?
A non-operational status indicates that your vehicle is not in use and will not be driven on public roads. This classification can provide certain benefits, particularly concerning penalties related to vehicle registration.
Benefits of Non-Operational Status
One significant advantage of declaring your vehicle as non-operational is the potential waiver of penalties for late registration. If you've failed to register your vehicle on time due to its inoperability, this designation may help alleviate some financial burdens.
Waiving Penalties
The DMV allows individuals with non-operational vehicles to apply for a waiver on specific penalties related to their registration lapses. However, it's crucial to follow the correct procedures when applying for this status.
Outstanding Fees Must Be Paid
- You are still required to pay any outstanding fees from previous years before bringing your registration current.
Steps To Bring Registration Current
- Check Outstanding Fees: Contact the DMV or check online for any unpaid fees linked with your account.
- Select Non-Operational Status: Complete necessary forms at the DMV indicating that your car is currently non-operational.
- Create Payment Plan (if needed): If you have substantial outstanding fees, consider discussing payment options with DMV representatives.
