Transporting a new purchase

[Gregory OConnor]

Pete the unsetteling thing with that form is you have no proof of
sending it. I now send them certified with a proof of process
statement signed by a disinterested 3rd party. I keep a copy and
photo copy of buyers driver license. Since your only obligation for
release of liability is to send it, I send 'certified only' and save
the reciept for that proof. I do not send it 'return reciept
requested' because I dont want to add the obligation that the mail
reaches the DMV.

Tim gave a car away several years back and it was impounded and
towed. we got notice that I was the last registered owner and just
let it go. The car was sold at auction for $500.00 and I was held
responsible for the balance of the Tow and storage. I never sent the
form in so I couldn't proclaim I did . my word has more value then
the $1,300 somthing balance. If the charge passed the $2,000.00
threshold, that value would have put me in court making
proclimations but still no proof of sending the form.
