You should go to a “sticker station” and get an inspection even if you know you will fail if you at least have a recent document showing you attempted and then say you need to make an appointment to get it fixed or get an actual appointment for as far out as you can so when you do get pulled over you at least have that and may be able to avoid a ticket. If your registration was not current over 6 months maine can tow car and arrest you…. Are your plates/registration current at least? Are you insured? Those two things are a must.

The vehicle has to be insured to be registered. vehicle has to be registered to get inspection sticker.

LOL are you ok?
I don’t think we are reading or on the same thread. You seemed butthurt. I only wanted to further ensure your safety. This being your mental. You went into detail about living on a mountain. I like to chat and type and you took the time to read the whole thing so it musta been a good story.

Why are you being so very sensitive? I put a laugh emoji - its not that serious.
I’m not the OP - I posted a picture of a truck that I saw in 40 degree weather the day after a storm. Absolutely no precipitation at all. I really don’t understand what your issue is about said truck or the car OP posted unless it was of course you in one of the photos.
Snow does indeed happen and as someone who lives in a state that snows (maine) and has driving privileges (a license) and has access to a vehicle to drive (maybe you even own it?!) then said person should know how to responsibly use the vehicle in all weather conditions wether predicted or not.
If your wipers broke and it’s snowing or other precipitation is coming down such as rain then you don’t drive your car. Period. Call a friend, a family member, walk or pay for some form of transportation to get yourself to where you need to go.
As a parent and a human who cares for the safety of others it’s a huge risk for yourself and everyone on the road around you when you can’t see. This is why side mirror and rear view mirrors and now cameras are on vehicles - snow all over your vehicle blocks sight and when covering lights either dims or makes them almost non existent. Snow and ice already slow response times. If someone slams on breaks due to chucks of snow and ice coming at their windshield again it can cause accidents.
Ask for help when you need it if you can’t reach the top of your vehicle to get mounds of snow off. Buy the correct tools to assist you in clearing off your own vehicle regardless of mechanical failure - you have to be somewhat prepared for this. I never said I was perfect but I do know how to use my resources and am responsible.
You’re doing just fine in life and I’m very proud of your attempts to clear off your vehicle.
Sincerely, The Person Who’s Neck Was Broken In an Auto Accident And Prefers/encourages others to not. Clean off your fucking cars or don’t fucking drive. Your not cool cause you can see out a crack. That’s not a skill.

Why not just scrape it off? Lol this was day after storm 40 degrees out and sunny. I understand vehicle parts fail but why risk the safety of yourself and others? Just to feel like a rockstar?! 🤣
Broom. Cardboard. Scraper. Hand. Pour warm water over it. Do something! Lol

Kind of .. as long as you filed 2021 taxes before 10/31/2022 and meet income requirements you’ll get the check. If you got the $850 it’ll be sent to the same address

Did you get the $850 check? If you did you shouldn’t have to worry or do anything but wait. 1st round of checks went out 1/31 and are now being received.
How did you file ? It takes less time to log in to most tax filing sites to grab your prior year taxes then it did to probably type what you did haha
Hope this helps!

It’s solely based on your 2021 reported income.
Eligible recipients are those who filed their 2021 Maine individual income tax return by October 31, 2022, are not claimed as a dependent on another’s return, and have earned a Federal adjusted gross income of less than:
$100,000 if filing single or if married and filing separately; $150,000 if filing as head of household; or $200,000 for couples filing jointly.
Did you receive the $850 check? It will be sent to same address.

You need to know line 14 of your 2021 tax refund. Maine updates Tuesdays and Fridays so you can check tonight and there may be an update in the morning.
Hope this helps.

Not sure where you are located but these two places here in Maine do Free Maine State inspections so you can save the fee. Small fee perhaps but adds up.
