nothing will happen because they don’t know you moved. Even if they did they do nothing. If you get pulled over and the cop wants to be a dick he can give you a ticked for failing to change your address. Most cops wont do this and if they do the person is a few months late and not a few days. ---

a LOT of people don’t change their address. or at least that’s the way it seemed to me when I used to work at wallyworld. and I would compare their license address to the address on checks they would write… and it would be totally different… they would just tell me they moved and didn’t change it. would happen a few times a day at least. (and that was working in photo, so it’s not like i saw a huge amount of checks from cashing people out, just very frequent) ---

i had my license renewed 4 days after it expire, no problems so I doubt they will give you a hard time about a address change. ---

Haha… When I moved into my house the DMV was the last one to find out because my Registrations where still good and I just wrote my new address on my liscense. Technically you are supposed to let the county now as well. I moved in my house in MAY but filled out a “single ballot” or whatever to let the county know I moved when I voted in the primaries almost 6 months later. No bigge, just get it done when you can. ---

Nothing will happen. I went to the DMV in Calinfornia and they didn’t even look to see when I had moved.Its been over 2 years since I moved to California.
