Smog Free Countys

[mbonanni]

My parents have a house in Lake County, and lucky enough I got my new four door car registered there!

I do not know if I would say it is "smog exempt" as I believe you have to smog the first time you register it to that county, but then never again.

At least that is what is going on with my registration currently. I need it smogged once, then never again.

Be jelly bitches.

I once met a guy who had P.O. box in one of those counties. He just had his car registered using the address of the P.O. box and had the box forward all his mail to his residence in the Bay Area. He said that it worked perfectly.

I think the DMV site actually lists all the counties that don't require smog, the majority are in socal.

If you go to one of those mail boxes etc places you'll get a street address

I think you can just get a p.o. box in like a ups store or postal annex or whatever

If this is true that would be amazing.
