DMV
car registration and inspection + driver license all went well. Missed one question on the license test, a sign identification one, which I knew what the sign meant, but wasn't sure which of the multiple choice answers matched what it meant, heh. :) So, license will come in the mail, I have to get the car smog checked and go back to the DMV to finish off the registration/title stuff.

My only big annoyance is the fact that I had to pay hundreds of dollars of tax on my car because I bought it relatively recently. That's right, CA taxed me on a car I bought in another state, while I was a resident of that state... And the tax was serious, over 11%... I made a guess as to how much tax I paid on it in WA, and got that taken off, but I still had to pay $268 additional over what I took as a guesstimate of what I paid in WA.

Oy, pretty darn ridiculous in my opinion.

Agreed, when it comes to motor vehicles, California acts like they are a different country.

I would have considered driving it with WA plates.
