It hasn't been since I've been driving.

In Oklahoma, we possess our vehicle titles with liens endorsed (eventually, as the state can take a couple months to issue one after the application) but don't have to carry them.
We also don't have to carry or show a registration certificate, and the state doesn't issue one with the tag. We do get a couple copies of the registration receipt from the tag office, and it is useful to carry a copy for states where a LEO might ask for a registration.

although a CG can set SOME rules, they can't play games with Title or V & T documents nor require to see them or copies----not anywhere. My vehicle and/or dog tags are good in all 50 states!
Regarding dogs---they MAY not allow them, but TAGS are PROOF that's required---period.
I think the OP has his document names confused.
they probably also could ask to see a valid marriage license before letting you stay if that was their written policy. Private property owners still have some rights, regardless of government intrusion. Like I say, there are very specific anti-discrimination laws that have to be obeyed. other than that it is sort of a cr@p shoot.

The registration certificate should back-up and verify the license plate number your rig has is legitimate and up to date too. At least, that's how I understand it in the different states I've licensed vehicles/RVs in.
What good is that? When I borrowed my FILs MH, the registration certainly did not have my name on it anywhere. If I had showed it to someone, what conclusion would they have reached?

There are also privacy laws. Anyone can ask for your social security number, but darned few people can require it.
Even my doctor, medical insurance carrier, and the hospitals I have been to do not know my social security number. Only banks, mortgage companies, the IRS and the State.
Many people, foolishly in my opinion, use their social security number as their medical insurance card number.

That's the way I understand it.
They can get my name, pobox, category/class of vehicles, license plate number, credit card number, a quick glance at my driver license for credit card/check ID verification and polite conversation at the pay desk and that's it. Anything more is none of their business. Registration documents will involve the police or sheriff. Titles are off limits unless I'm selling something or situation escalates to my lawyer.

Hi All.
Never heard of any such thing in the 40+ years as RV'ers. Never have been asked for anything. The only thing any campground ever gets from us, is our name, and our Debit Card. Gave up Credit Cards many many years ago. We have them, but never use them. We do carry one very high limit credit Card, for a real emergency, that has never happend so far. We won't even put our Drivers License numbers on any forms. Any palace that wants the Trucks License number, I just write in 1997 Ford F-250. If they want more than that, they can go outside and write down the information themselfs. We have never had any sing-in issues over the years. But one thing that we won't do, is give vitial information to total strangers. The same thing goes for any Doctors that we see. If its a new Doctor, or Dentist,or a Specialist and forms needs to be filled out, only our names and address is all that they get from us, and a copy of our current Medical Coverage Card. There is no valid reason anyone, in any field of work needs our personal information. Since we only use a Debit Card, anyone that takes it, knows the money is drawn from the our account right then and there. And they also know instantely if the card rejects the purchase. People are way to free giving out their personal information, and make it way to easy for others to cause identiy theift. We are glade that we mostly Dry-Camp/RV anyways. No Problems, No Hassels. Good Luck. Happy Camping. Dan & Jill

Each state handles things differently. Illinois retains the title until the lien is paid off.
Quote: If I did have the title, I would NEVER keep it in the vehicle. Then there's the famous California "pink slip," which IS the title - and must be carried by anyone driving the vehicle. At least that was the rule when we lived there.
Don't believe this is the case in California.... at least not now. They ask for the "registration" - the "pink slip" is in the safe deposit box at the bank.
