[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bought a new car in 1997 at a dealership in Rockville. As a DC resident, they would not do the vehicle registration and get plates for me. Said I was on my own. When I got to the DMV I learned why. They had a reverse Jim Crowe system in which I, as a white person, was expected to stand to the side and wait while black people behind me in line were serviced. When it was finally my turn, the clerk refused my valid DC driver's license as appropriate ID to register the vehicle. I had to pitch a fit in front of a supervisor to get plates. You can't make this stuff up. [/quote] Do you still live in DC or are you in the suburbs?[/quote]
