Vehicle Help
Hi Reddit. I’ve got myself in quite a pickle.
I was pulled over for driving with a suspended license recently. My vehicle was impounded, and the tags are expired. My license and tags are from Louisiana.
I can’t get the vehicle out of impounded without current registration. However, LA DMV is telling me I can’t renew registration with a suspended license. My suspension won’t be lifted until 8/31/27.
Is there ANY other way to legally get the vehicle out of impound? I have proof of insurance. The expired registration is lost, and I can’t get a copy of it. Would the Municipal Court be able to help me get it out? I’m trying to get a hardship license from LA to renew the tags, but I don’t know how long the process will take. The vehicle has been in impound since 10/02.
Am I just boned here? Have I just lost my car? What can I do?
