Shipping my Car from California

• Notify the California DMV

  • Complete a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability (NRL) online or via mail. This ensures you are no longer held liable for the vehicle's registration fees or any incidents involving the car after you leave California.
  • The NRL form can be completed on the California DMV website.

• Register Your Vehicle in the New State

  Once you move, you’ll need to register your vehicle in your new state and obtain new license plates. The exact process and timeline vary by state, but most require you to complete registration within 30-90 days of establishing residency.

• Keep or Dispose of Your California Plates

  • If the new state requires you to surrender your old plates when registering your vehicle, you can hand them over at the new state's DMV.
  • If not, you can keep your California plates as a souvenir.

About San Jose

• Unicorn Traffic Problems: The tech boom brought unicorn startups-and enough traffic to make your morning commute feel like you're starring in your own personal slow-motion disaster movie.
• High-Tech Traffic Lights: San Jose experimented with "smart" traffic lights that are supposed to reduce traffic jams. Let's just say the lights are smart, but the drivers? That's debatable!
• Tech Capital, Not Great Wi-Fi: Despite being the heart of Silicon Valley, San Jose's public Wi-Fi isn't exactly what you'd expect from the tech capital of the world.
• First High-Rise Debate: Residents have argued over building tall skyscrapers for years, fearing they might block the view of planes landing at the airport - or the mountains in the distance. Priorities!
• It's Always "Chill": San Jose has an average of 300 sunny days a year, but locals still complain when it drops below 60℉-it's their version of "freezing."
• World's Largest Monopoly Board: San Jose has a massive, playable Monopoly board in Guadalupe River Park. You can actually rent oversized dice and hats to play the game. No pressure if you land on Boardwalk!
• It's the Biggest Small City: San Jose is the 10th-largest city in the U.S., but somehow still feels like a collection of neighborhoods with small-town vibes.
• Garlic Rules Nearby: Just down the road in Gilroy, the "Garlic Capital of the World", San Jose residents can smell the Garlic Festival from miles away. It's their version of aromatherapy!

San Jose is a quirky, sunny, tech-filled city that embraces its unique charm and eccentricities. If you're in town, there's always something to laugh about!

Scientific Facts About Washington, D.C.

• Horse Statue Law: If a statue of a horse has both front legs in the air - the rider died in battle. If one leg is raised - the rider was wounded. If all four legs are on the ground, the person survived... or the horse just felt like standing normally.
• Traffic Circles of Doom: Washington, D.C. has so many traffic circles that even GPS gets confused. If you make it out of Dupont Circle in one try, you deserve a medal.
• The Snow Day Paradox: D.C. shuts down over an inch of snow, but government workers will still be required to send emails from home.
• No One is Actually From Here: Ask someone in D.C. where they're from, and you'll probably get an answer like, "Originally? Ohio."
• Metro Escalators = The Gym: Some of D.C.'s Metro stations have escalators so long, they feel like an extreme sport. Good luck if they're out of service!
• Tourists vs. Locals: You can always spot a tourist-they're the ones standing on the left side of the Metro escalator (a serious D.C. crime) or wearing an FBI t-shirt from a gift shop.
• It's Not a State (Yet?): D.C. residents love reminding you that they pay taxes but have no voting representation in Congress. They even put it on their license plates.
• Cherry Blossom Madness: Every spring, D.C. becomes a pink paradise-but also a traffic nightmare, as everyone flocks to the Tidal Basin for the perfect Instagram photo.
• Political Overload: In most cities, small talk is about the weather. In D.C., it's about congressional hearings, policy debates, and which politician was spotted at Whole Foods.

Washington, D.C. is a city full of history, quirks, and enough political drama to last a lifetime. Whether you're dodging tourists, braving the Metro, or just trying to find a decent parking spot - life is awesome in the nation's capital!
