Car owners should be aware of the auditor's capacity as an agent of the Washington State Department of Licensing.  This responsibility not only encompasses sale of motor vehicle licenses and collection of license fees and excise tax, but also the transfer of vehicles from one owner to another, title changes to add or delete a legal owner other than the registered owner, collection of load fees on trucks and other transactions involving motor vehicles.
