You just purchased a used vehicle and you are waiting for the title in the mail Can the person you sell it to register the vehicle without a title?

Nope! In fact, title chasing stories are quite common. It's very easy to void a title. State agencies are very particular about gramatical errors. If you ever need to get a new title for your own car you either need an old registration from that car and a photo I.D. (and hope your name is spelled exactly the same on both certificates) and they can print you a new one right there at the DMV in my state. However, if you can't find the registration you will have to fill out a form and wait. Some states like S. Dakota require you to fill out an application and wait 4 to 6 weeks.

If you do find a way around this, I would sure love to know about it!!!
