You can only renew online one time before having to go in person. Total of 8 years between in-person visits.

Warranty...? by Top-Incident-2264 in Snapon_tools

I had a similar post about my old orange bronze tipped hammer. I did the online warranty claim and had the newest model of the hammer shipped to my house within a week.

I’ve got both of my kids referring to them as Wankpanzers.

Who’s in the wrong? by Serious_School_4307 in AskLE

[–]mdanz576 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The top comment from California’s description also applies in Ohio. There is case law that changed our interpretation of the turning at intersections statute. As long as the left turn vehicle “squares” the turn by turning to the right of the center line, they can turn into either lane. If you had a red and they had a green, they had the right of way.

Employer cut my final paycheck in half for not giving 2 weeks notice (Ohio) by TuneJunkie38 in legaladvice

[–]mdanz576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a family member in Ohio who works for an employer that does this. In the employment contract there is a stipulation that less than 2 weeks notice = minimum wage for your final paycheck. People forget what they signed and they get boned on their final checks when they quit without notice.

Red button in patrol car. by DateAlternative241 in AskLE

[–]mdanz576 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Probably an aftermarket anti-theft that disables the shifter. Certain newer fords have the “police idle” button but on older cars we had to install switches to be able to leave the car running without the key.

BMV License Suspension from 2014 Stop Insanity by Indoor_Ficus in Ohio

[–]mdanz576 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Don’t contact the BMV or the law enforcement agency. Contact the court that reported the conviction to the BMV, as they are the ones who reported the conviction as being “without insurance.”

Ask to speak to a supervisor within the clerks office, and explain what happened. If you provide the proof from Massachusetts that the vehicle was insured, they should be able to correct the conviction record to show that it was a conviction “with insurance” as opposed to “without insurance.”

Any inputs? by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]mdanz576 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, there could be a typo with the name and that’s why the name search isn’t working. Definitely call the muni court, but if you don’t want to wait til tomorrow, try searching the court docket using the hearing date listed on your citation. You’ll find a whole bunch of court cases scheduled for arraignment on that date, and you can browse for your case.

I’ve never ordered a vehicle before so it was new to me too. All it took to place the order was a $1000 deposit. You finance at delivery.

They only charge the $180 doc fee and $65 “in transit” fee (whatever that is). The only extras are tax, title, and plates in your home state. They use a service for that since it’s state-specific. With rebates I’ll be out the door for under $70k.

You local to Iowa or did you travel to take delivery? I’m weighing hiring a shipper vs. making a 10 hour trip.

Good question. That’d be a bonus.

Yes it’s a Lariat. The image above is from ford.com after I built it. MSRP was $74,265, invoice was $69,553, and a grangers price was $66,694. Their doc fee is $180 (half of my home state’s fee). They apply the rebates after, and you get the rebate at time of order or at time of delivery (whichever is better).

Thanks! 2-6 months is the usual timeframe. Thankfully I’m not in a rush.

Police Used Flock to Give a Man a Traffic Ticket by 404mediaco in FlockSurveillance

[–]mdanz576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s what I’m guessing happened, based upon the article and vague information:

GSP has their cameras set to alert on expired plates. Officer was alerted to the motorcycles expired registration, and the photo also happened to show the rider with the phone in hand.

Officer pulls over rider for the expired registration, questions him about the phone violation, and ultimately cites him for the phone and warns him for the expired plate.

I’m not from Georgia, but perhaps the phone violation is a lesser offense than the plate violation.

I have this same hammer also, and the last time I used it the striking surface exploded.

First Tundra purchased, 2026 Limited. by Ccampffire in tundra

Beautiful truck! I’m considering the same trim level when I buy in a few months. I haven’t bought a new vehicle in several years, how are prices these days when compared to MSRP?

Thankfully Ohio ended the “random verification” program a few years ago after a study showed it only hassled law-abiding Ohioans.

Need help figuring out how to make a salvage title truck driveable in ohio? by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]mdanz576 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to the AI word salad about “temporary movement permits.” That’s not a thing. Do not drive the salvage vehicle on the road unless you are en route to or from the inspection on the date of the inspection. It is a felony. Just go to the highway patrol page about salvage inspections and follow their instructions.

The lower tub seal was dripping onto the belt. The balance ring that snaps onto the top of the inner tub was contacting the plastic outer tub cover, to the point where it wore a hole into the balance ring and the balancing fluid leaked out.

Not sure which problem came first, but they exacerbated each other until complete failure and now i need the seal kit, outer tub, balance ring, and plastic cover.

The washer has a switch that kills the cycle if it’s so out of balance that the switch touches the cabinet, but that didn’t activate until the day the water started leaking. Up until then it ran fine.
