I have been in psychiatric treatment for a little over three years. My symptoms had been pretty severe, including psychotic episodes up until a few months ago. I'm trying to piece my life back together, and getting my car repaired was on my priority list. Well, I had some done, had it inspected, and then got an oil change. The guys at Jiffy Lube told me that my inspection sticker was over three years old, and that in North Carolina they now charge you a fine of $200+ as soon as your inspection is four months past due, and then tack on $25 per day for each day after that. Well, I guess that means when I next go to register my car, they will tell me I owe them nearly $30,000!!! I don't have $300 to my name right now. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get a waiver of some sort when you have extenuating circumstances? I had no presence of mind to comb my own hair for years, let alone have my car inspected. I never got any notifications. Now I'm scared to call and ask anyone at DMV.
