Trip to Washington By Car - Page 2

Hey vinter why didnt you just go to NM? Its closer to TX

would you please PM me the details of what paper work is required to get a WA ID and/or license.

thanks!

First of all, there are too many checkpoints in NM. Secondly, I don't know anyone who lives in Mexico and lastly, I do not have enough documents.

wait a minute. Sooo what exactly happens if a cop stops you and sees you have a license from another state? Like the license doesn't match the insurance you know? This is getting complicated. =\

Can you please PM me the documents they asked you for? Please. =]

In most states you can't register a car with a license from a different state.
You have two options:
1. Register you car in the state that you got your license in and drive in your state with out-of-state license plates - its ok.
2. Drive someone else's car.

Oh okay. Very nice thanks!
So what about the insurance thing you know?
I'm guessing if you're driving someone elses car you can use their insurance? Right?

If you are driving an insured car - you are good. Unless it's a stolen insured car.

Some states let you register a car there even if you have an out of state license. You can call your DMV and check. Also, if you rent a car and then it's already insured.

Ooohh okay! I see! Thank you! You were a lot of help!

I think I'm the only idiot in here who went all the way to seattle from Florida to get a license and lost it later on.

Yea please also let me know through PM

thanks
