What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
So I have just moved to Utah and had to leave my truck in California due to a bad oil pump. We got the issue fixed, but the truck smoked like a chimney while it burned off the excess oil built up in the exhaust. While limping the truck home form the shop, dad was given a fix-it ticket for the truck. We haven't received it in the mail yet, but I want to get my ducks in a row if I can and see what my options are.
The truck was registered in California at the time, but we have been planning to move it here to me in Utah for a while. I have no issue paying the fine, court fees, etc. but I need my truck before winter hits here and if the ticket requires a smog ref appointment it might seriously delay the move. I need to know if I can just pay the fine and register the truck here without seeing a smog ref and the ticket will be taken care of, or if the ticket will never be cleared, despite that the truck is no longer registered in California.
