Check the newspaper ads and on-campus notices for available cars. Ask someone who is familiar with cars to help you. Before you purchase a used car, have the car inspected for possible defects. A local mechanic will charge you a small fee to do this, but the fee could save you from buying a worthless car. When you drive, you are responsible for your own safety, the safety of your passengers, and any financial responsibility that might occur from having an accident.
Auto insurance is available through insurance agencies.
Look in the Yellow Pages under Insurance . The cost of your insurance will depend on your age, driving record, type of car you own, distance driven to work or school, and the type of coverage you want. Compare prices from different agencies. You need a certificate of ownership to register the vehicle in your name. Contact Public Safety for more information.
