Re: '81 Corolla liftback
yup, I believe in most or all states you need insurance, inspection, and then registration. registration is also sticker proof that you got inspected here in Texas.dlb wrote:we don't have that in canada, or at least in BC. is it different from being insured?

Re: '81 Corolla liftback
Most states don't inspect and just need registration and insurance. Registration gets you the license plate.

Re: '81 Corolla liftback
i wonder what the point of registering every year is. if there were annual safety inspections, that would make sense, but if most states don't have it then i don't understand why they'd make you re-register every year. besides a cash grab, of course.
here, we register a vehicle into our name when we buy it, and it stays like that until we sell it.

Re: '81 Corolla liftback
Yes, we have to renew plates every 1-2 years depending on the state.
The whole point is tax money!

Re: '81 Corolla liftback
I think the term "registered" is somewhat different north of the boarder. "Registured" usually means the licence is current and it can be lagally driven on public roads, it will also have to have a proper title that lists the owner. It can have a title, but not be registered, but not visa-versa.
It varies state to state, but usually the car can have the title in your name, and not be "registered". The term usually means that its license is current and can be legally driving on public roads.
It only needs to be registered if it is driven on public roads. Something driven only on a farm, or off road, for example, does not need a registration, but it should have a title, though that is not always a legal requirement, but it helps prove ownership.
Some states have annual or biannual safety and/or emissions inspections required too keep it licensed. In my state only in certain high density areas are emissions testing required to renew the registration. After 25 years old, no inspections are required at all (this is also true in many states). Some states only require an emissions tests and safety inspection when the title changes hands.
In our state a safety inspection is always required to get get a state title and registration if it comes from out of state, or it was declared "totaled" and you rebuild it and put it back on the road.
In California, even if it is off the road and not running (like a project car sitting in your garage), you either have to keep the title current and registered, or you have to pay to put it in "in-operable" status, or you get fined when you try and get it registered. I have bought a few cars in California cheap because there were more fines piled up than the car was worth because they did not put it in "in-op" status, and it could not pass emissions tests. Not a problem in my state because no emissions test is required, I only needed a title and bill of sale to get it licensed here.
