Quick question. I need to move a car that will be going into my possession soon, and need a temp pass. I can do so as long as the previous owner ownership says fit and if i have insurance for the car, correct? Now i dont feel like getting insurance for this car just yet since its for the winter, can i not just give them the policy number of my current car and then show them the “fit” ownership of this winter beater and get my temp pass for it. i know ill have to get plates and pay for tax since this new rule has come up. Thanks, Derek. ---

Ya, they never ever check the policy number. They just need to have something on paper. ---

wait a minute im in the same baot and went to the dmv today i was told i have to get my own saftey and e-test, and thus the car has to be towed to a sho to get it done. then and only then can i register it and get a temp permit. wtf? all i have to do is show them its fit on the old ownership to get a temp? (along with my insuracne policy) ---

if you transferred it into your name already, and you are the owner of an unfit vehicle it’s too late you gotta do it during the transfer process im pretty sure ---

Once u transfer it in your name ( without a safety ) it becomes unfit and u cant get temp plates till u get a safety. ---

Carefull. I thought the same until I got pulled over. The cop checked the temp plate and then my insurance slip. Then he asked me why the car on the insurance slip was different than what I was driving. I told him I had just bought the car and they hadn’t sent me the new slips; I still got a ticket for not having proof of insurance. ---
