Great thread for my b—ch.
Election year politicking: Florida Lowering motor vehicle fees. Raised 5 years ago by Crist. It appears the rollback is about 30% of the yearly fee folks pay on the cars.
Crist almost doubled them in 2009.
Now my gripe. The fee for titling a vehicle went up in 2009, THREE-FOLD. $25 to $75. That hasn’t gone down 1 penny.
My personal concern is the need to remove grown children from vehicle titles that the insurance company required them on when they were teenagers. State takes $77 to simply remove one name from the title. No true ownership change at all.
The more children in the family the worse this punishment is.
After the years of construction, the express lanes will probably see frustrated drivers. It was horrible for a few years. Craters, shifting lanes uneven surfaces (BAM front end), no exit. Now the main E-W artery (595) to FLL airport is pretty nice.
And I had to get a front-end alignment and new suspension.
