Contenu
If you buy car for someone else, such as a family member, you must register the car with your states motor vehicle office. Depending on your state, you dont necessarily need to prove youre qualified to drive, though states like California prohibit non-licensed minors from registering or buying vehicles. You must, however, be able to prove your identity and the ability to pay damages caused by someone you allow to drive your vehicle.
Proof of Identity
Depending on your state, if you dont have a drivers license, you can show a **state-issued photo identification card** as proof of identity. Certain states permit only a drivers license or state-issued identification card as acceptable proof. In some states, other forms of acceptable identification include *U.S. passport *Social Security card *Birth certificate *Social Security card *Marriage certificate
Proof of Financial Responsibility
**Proof of financial responsibility** to register the vehicle generally means liability or no-fault insurance, depending on your state. This insurance pays for bodily injuries or property damage caused by someone you allow to drive. An insurance card or copy of your policy normally will suffice. Aside from insurance, you can get a bond from a surety company, put up real property, or in states such as Nebraska use certificates of deposit, stocks or bonds.
