I've been seeing many stories like mine on the internet: I moved from Maryland in 1998, have never been uninsured, sold a car shortly after I moved, don't have any idea if I even have records dating back that far, and now, fourteen years later, get a bill from the Maryland MVA for $5356.26.
My now husband also moved from Maryland in 1999 and he too started receiving similarly huge bills just recently. The first notice was almost unreadable. I just got a second one that's clear and has a payment envelope.
So far we've ignored these notices. Isn't there a legal limit for bill collecting? If I had received it 13 years ago I would have been able to take care of it easily. Waiting 14 years? Give me a break! This feels like a scam.

having had friends who had to go through this, its not a scam. I dont think it will go away either on its own. From what I understand about maryland MVA these bills rack up when people move and dont properly close their accounts. I have a friend with a bill over 3000$ because he did not turn in his license plate when he moved and got rid of a car. If you didnt turn in the license plate when you moved, the state considers you to still have the vehicle. Thus the insurance lapses on the vehicle and you start racking up fines. My guess as to why it took so long to find you is that you did not leave the state with any sort of forwarding address when you moved. What you need to do, is provide proof to them that you moved and sold the car. If you can prove this, they will make the fines go away. I also dont think this falls under the statute of limitations for bill collecting since this is a government fine and not a bill.
