 For out-of-state vehicles being registered, the state headquarters and DMV were local. This is 1980 when he lived there. It was an enormous hassle, busy. I had to retake the motorcycle operator's test and registering something. Should have told you something about life there. Steve always gives those unique twists from his perspective of where he's lived around the country. Michigan, DMV is plus private registration offices. That's new. I've never heard of that.
