DMV Online Registrations
09/03/12
As of this
year, DMV will allow sled registrations online, for
both in-state and out of state. This may sound
good, however, by doing it this way, your local DMV
offices will lose out on quite a bit of income and
may eventually close and jobs are lost. By
registering online the local offices will only get 4%
instead of the 12.7% if you walk in the door.
And that 4% will only be received after they
get a certain number of transactions.
Several of
the clubs have looked into this online registration
and have come up with the above information and are
not really in favor of it. It may be beneficial
to some out-of-staters, but we are asking our local
residents to register local and try to keep our DMV
offices open and available. If you don't have
the time to 'walk in the door' then it still counts
if you mail it to the local office.
We are all in favor of keeping the Lowville office of DMV open as they have been very helpful to many snowmobilers in the past.
