I was looking at a house that’s 2 away from me that just went up for sale. In 2017 it was $217,000, now they are asking $655,000, which in this market is insane, especially for my neighborhood. It’s really insane what people think housing is worth in 5-6 years.

I got shafted with that. I bought a camper in the winter and waited a couple of months before registering it.
Funny thing is, when I was paying the penalty at the dmv I told the guy I should have made a fake bill of sale with a different date. He said “Oh yeah. A lot of people do that”.

Celebrated bakery is great, they’re in the stop & shop plaza next to the liquor store, it’s so fun and inviting in there, they used to be in Warwick, but not easy to find there. Perks and corks in westerly is a fun cocktail bar with a retro rock vibe. The Rathskeller is always fun, so many different vibes in the place, and during the summer, outdoor seating, bands, and frosty beers. The food (to me) was better pre-pandemic, but it’s still a good meal for the area.

Go to court or you'll get an FTA and a warrant for your arrest.

If you have a car that you're no longer going to be using that's registered, you can use your current plates for 5 business days on the newer car.
If the car is 2011 or newer, you'll need a VIN check prior to registering it. Check with your local PD for hours.
Things to keep in mind, keep the Bill of Sale and Title in the car if you're driving it before you go to the DMV.
The Bill of Sale and title will need to be notarized before you register it, you already have it insured, so that's OK.
You could also apply for a Temporary plate at the DMV if you can't get an appointment.
Once registered, you have 30 days to get the car inspected, even if the sticker is valid, that's the RI money grab.

Ahh. I haven’t gone since I moved back to RI. I did register a car with AAA but it was a different state and like 12 years ago 😅

Keep checking the website for appointments. You might be able to snag a same day one like I did. They change hourly.
Do you have license plates from your other car?

The Rhode Island DMV is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.

Tough to stop DUI's in a state where the police frequently get caught drunk driving themselves and routinely only get a slap on the wrist for it.

Yeah, I think Google isn’t up to date. It looks abandoned if you drive by it.

I’ve never seen Minh Hai open, I drive by it in the afternoon and evenings.
I am wondering if they closed permanently, have you been there recently?
