    Cars and drivers are registered on the state level, yes. There’s an agreement that licenses from every state are valid in every other state, and infractions in any state are prosecuted by the jurisdiction in which it happens. There is no national registry, no. States can (and do) collect taxes and registration fees from drivers who reside in that state, but they don’t typically collect on behalf of the federal government.
