I am asking this question for my uncle. I don't drive yet so I don't know the answer! I went on the Mass RMV site and didn't see any info on transferring plates. maybe it was on there but I didn't see it. lol
thank you for looking at my question.



Answer
Go to the nearest Insurance broker so that they can fill out the RMV1. Transferring plates goes for approximately 15.00 plus any weight difference. For instance if the new vehicle weights less then the weight of the old car you only pay the transfer fee. If It weights more then It is approximately $1.60 per 100 lbs difference in the weight. If the old car weights 2400 lbs and the new car weight 3100 that equals 700 lbs so@ $1.60 per 100 lbs that is a grand total of $11.20 + 15.00=26.20 plus any tax title and local fee. The broker (your uncle has to have gotten the Insurance somewhere.) In Mass Is the only place to get a reg form. Not at the DMV.

how do i contest a traffic violation in which Im not the driver and the Driver lic info is not mine?

address and car registration info is correct but age and description (based on driver lic.) are not.
also ticket is a photo-ticket for running a left-turn red light



Answer
You contest it by explaining that it's not you.

But hold up a second, because you didn't say what kind of violation this is. The tickets that arrive by mail are normally photo-tickets, and they're not actual traffic violations. If you own the car and someone else ran a red light or went speeding past a camera while driving it, those tickets get sent to the owner and the owner is responsible for them. They don't involve points, in fact they don't even show up on your driving record, but you do have to deal with the fine.

If what you received was a copy (or second notice) of a cop-issued real traffic ticket, you then get off the hook by explaining they made an error because that driver is not you. How they got your vehicle information (probably wrote down the wrong plate #) is their business, but the driver of the vehicle is not you and you can prove it. Mistakes like that can happen, and are easily corrected.

But first, find out exactly what this ticket is. There is always a number to call somewhere on there, so call it.
