http://www.kceoradio.com/marketwrap/uautoknow/uautoknow080208.mp3 most of the first quarter is all about the car cruise and it's Merchant Assoc. President, Stanley Young, the second quarter is the Police Chief interview, and the last is interviewing a 15 year icon of the show, Jumpin Jack Flash, a DJ who volunteers to play 50 and 60's music.
"I think our venue is the best... we have a much more congenial village..."

Alan Lanning
Chief of Police La Mesa
DMV investigators are sworn peace officers and carry sidearms, investigative and enforcement arm of the DMV, were contacted by the La Mesa Police dept to work with the La Mesa PD to clear up issues left purposely vague by the Chief of LMPD. He purposely, didn't specify any issue that DMV was asked to look at.
Paul, a car guy with a sweet pair of cars, told me that the DMV was at LaMesa comparing registered vehicle values on record vs the apparent value of the vehicle in person, to force the issue and see that the DMV increases revenue by getting closer to the average market value of the vehicles versus the reported value when the vehicle was last registered. Also the recorded event of the "dealer plates" on a vehicle that were expired, and not the plates registered with the car.
Deputy Director of DMV Enforcement said that the investigators did overreact, and had too many members present at the car show.

Dude come on. Don't you think this is getting a little old? That show was meant to explain the situation, not start more chaos. If you had listened, Alan Lanning said they called the DMV out specifically to check out the dealer plates they were seeing on some cars. It wasn't for "no reason". Please, I understand you don't like the La Mesa Car Show, but you really don't need to ruin it for the people that work hard on it day in and day out.
ReplyDeleteDeena While and I, love this car show. We are trying to build back the reputation it lost a few years ago and having people bash it on the internet isn't quite helping with this already difficult task. You keep reliving situations that are in the past and our participants are starting to forget. The car show is improving and you seem to ignore that in order to feed your negative view of the show. Why not think a little more postitive huh?
Email me if you would like to discuss this matter further.
