talked to insurance. they were helpful and faxed (who still faxes?!?!) documents i need to take to DMV and did not cancel my current policy (yet). Now have documentation that shows coverage through sum of 4 policies with a 9 day lapse of coverage in June 2013.
Registration was suspended for this lapse and has been suspended since August 4th 2013.
i was cited for
unregistered motor vehicle
uninsured motor vehicle (BS, its insured, just had a 9 day lapse)
i had no paper work for trailer (with wrong but vailid main plate, trailer not titled to me, but no marks or tags bah), she didnt seem to car about the trailer with two buggies on it.
all in all its a 3$ a day fine, and some running around and a court date- but i did learn what info is avail to trooper when plate is run. good printout she gave me.
Edit* running around getting all my documents was waste of time- sat at DMV for 40 minutes to pay 8$ per day, 72$ fine for 9 days of insurance lapse. they needed no documentation from me other than payment.
have piece of paper now that says suspension is terminated, and you only get the option of paying a fine once every 3 years! neat!
This system baffles me the gross waste of time and resources.
