Sounds like a rip off to me, unless the remainder of the rego is
transferable to the new owner.
How do they get away with it? Wonder how much money they make out of
duplicate registrations on vehicles?
Also the system of rego based on value is stupid, insofar that the state
wants people to drive relatively modern cars but imposes an extra tax on
anyone who buys a newer car.
Our system does have this in a sense where the tax payable when you
register a car is based on value but annual renewal fees are based on
the type of vehicle, so the annual cost of a new Merc is the same as one
that is 20 years old.

No refunds here that I know of. If you sell the car before the
registration expires, you simply lose the value of what you paid.
Some states, like Indiana, had a system where the cost of your annual
registration was based on the value of the vehicle, rather than a flat fee.
If you had a new or fairly new car, you might have to pay thousands of
dollars each year for your registration. Fees leveled off after 12 years.
I am not sure if they still do it this way or not. I don't think they do.
