Apparently it’s more to let paramedics know in case of crash that finding and saving baby becomes priority #1. I know this from a 2011 meme so not sure how accurate the information is.
I’d be willing to bet paramedics and other first responders have actual training as to how an accident scene should be triaged, and don’t depend on which cutesy decorations the occupants may or may not have.
Nevermind all the terminology gobledygook. This sounds an awful lot like a temporary tag, or a temporary permit to relocate a vehicle without a plate. Which I think is pretty standard in any state, and I can see a dealership begrudgingly doing this if it gets the car off the lot. But it’s very temporary, like days to weeks in my experience. I think the DMV would catch on if you kept coming back for permits.
Also, I’m guessing sovcit here doesn’t have a “FARM USE” loophole in their state?
The only real question is whether there will be violence. I wouldn’t want to be the rep telling this person anything they don’t wanna hear, like facts or reality.
All the Sovcit logic stuff is bullshit anyway, it just sounds like something that might be real. So build an LLM and feed it all the Sovcit shit you can find. Then ask it a question that contradicts a Sovcit position. Yes its going to be a garbage answer it returns, but it will sound like something a Sovcit would say.
Sovcit: “You can’t take my car because I issued an international statement of payment with receipt on my account!”
LLM answer: “Oh, I’m sorry. International statements of payment are only valid in registered districts of independence. You clearly haven’t executed a notice Promissory Estoppel, and its too late now so I have to take the car.”
You’re not wrong, but I’ve seen people go to great lengths to keep a car from getting repossessed even though they weren’t paying. So I meant “let them” as in “don’t fight them when they come knocking”.
Long, worthless anecdote from 25ish years ago, feel free to skip: My buddy’s grandfather owned a very small hometown car lot and financed some of the cars in house (instead of interest, it was just a flat rate “this is what it costs if you don’t pay me up front”). Every once in a great while someone would stop paying and try to hide instead of calling and working with the guy who was super reasonable. He’d let people slide for months with no extra payments if you’d just talk to him about it. So my buddy would go looking for the car and pick it up. I went with him a couple of times because he needed a second driver.
Once I went with him after we had a particularly wild weekend. He had hurt his foot in a drunken lake incident so he was limping. I had two black eyes from face planting after a separate drunken lake incident later that evening. We showed up and one of the tires on the car was flat. So he’s limping along with a tire tool and I’m helping him change the tire. We took it back without incident.
Before we got back to the lot the guy had called his grandfather asking why he sent two “mob looking sons of bitches” to take it back rather than just coming out himself. We were hungover, scrawny, injured teenagers.
The guy came by later that week and paid the damn car off and got it back. He had the money but was going to try to keep it and the car rather than paying this hometown working class guy.
