Guest Inquiring Mind Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 There seems to be an inordinate number of Borth Carolina cars parked around town. Has Kearny become a Charlotte suburb or is it as I suspect a way of obtaining cheap auto insurance? Does anybody know the real story? Like maybe you can register a car in NC with just a PO box?

With the internet it is easy to register in other states. I think that you do need a valid address, summer home, friend, relative. Resident parking permits in town could help to reduce this problem. Residents would have to show proof the the car is legally registered and insured to a Kearny resident to get one, or be ticketed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, If you register your car in NC your insurance will be cheaper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NJ Resident Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 You don't know ?? You must be the only person in Kearny that doesn't know. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> By the way, NC mails the tags to you!! You don't even need to go down there to get them. The car insurance is around $400 a year down there. And take a good look at the drivers, I know a girl who got the tags, barely spoke English because she was barely in the country long enough!! I'm telling you, we are doing this all wrong. I'm about to join the immigrants, they know how to work the system. Oh, and by the way, ticketing won't work. When they get enough tickets, they toss the plates and register for new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son lost his license in NJ and when he tried to apply in NC, where we are now living, he was denied a license. He was told to call Trenton, NJ to find out why. With comuterization no one gets a free pass. My insurance is approximatelt $1300 a year. Alot cheaper than when I was in NJ but certainly not as cheap as some people are led to believe. The biggest saving we get is on real-estate taxes. But this should come as no surprise to ya'll because NJ has the highest rate in the country. My house is valued at $210,00 and my taxes are $1400 yearly.However there are some hidden taxes, like personal property(cars, boats ,etc.). Outside of the real-estate and auto insurance everything else is a wash, although my wife thinks food is more expensive and Drs. and dentists are higher.........I hope this clears up some of the misgivings you might've heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
