After I had called the bank last week, wondering what happened to the check, I also called the DMV. DMV assured me that the tags would arrive by Saturday; the check cleared the bank November 24. I am p'd.

I suspect it's the person who the USPS contracts to deliver mail; he's got some fingers that just don't let go of some mail. Or, it mysteriously vanishes. This isn't the first time mail has disappeared .

The holidays are getting so close, and now that I can get out, I'm ready. I don't think the DMV is going to get anything here in a timely manner. And, I don't know why, but my bank no longer provides cancelled checks.


ETA: Thank you for the link. I ain't drivin' that car anywhere since I see that officers in CA will issue citations regardless of duration. However, I think it's pretty judgemental (sp?) for some to assert that people are as remiss as some wish to believe.
