5:45 AM the blue and red lights are flashing behind you.
The nice officer asks to see your registration because he just ran your licence plate and your car is not registered. He asks how you happen to have a 2010 sticker.
I reply I registered it last September and reach in the glove box for the registration.
I glance at it as I pull it from it's pretty folder that keeps it from being mangled in the glove box.
I don't recognize the name on the registration...Patrick Civero...PANIC sets in! I glance at the make and model of the car, 2000 Plymouth Voyager...NO! I drive a 2000 Pontiac Montana...,
I hesitate as I hand it to the officer and mention this is the wrong documentation.
The officer lets the ladies out of my car to catch the vanpool ride that is about to leave...I am not as fortunate, they leave without me.
After calling in several times and talking to different people the officer returns to me and hands me the documentation. I think you look like an honest lady and I don't think you're trying to pull a fast one on me, so I will let you go with a warning...please take care of this TODAY.
I got to work and looked more closely at the registration. It had my inspection approval stapled to the back, I took a look at that and realized it had our name and address on it properly but the vehicle was a 1997 Ford Explorer....It turns out that the inspector had transposed the licence number. Ours is 205UGY. The inspetor had typed in 250UGY. I turned to the registration and saw that the DMV had typed in the wrong licence also...that one...206UGY. Talk about a mess!
When I went to the DMV after work they decided that I should get a new inspection ($17.00) and pay for a new year of registration ($106.00) I currently have a 2 week temporary registration so I won't have to explain to another officer....Whew! I don't want to relive that day. The lady at the DMV said the officer could have impounded my car and taken me to jail untill I could explain someone's stupid mistake.
Boy, am I glad it's Tuesday... Even though the 201, 202, and I 80 were closed and it took us 2 hours to get home...it's a good day:)
