Different states have different laws related to the sale of a vehicle. For example, some states require the seller to physically remove the license plate before transferring it to the buyer. Some states require signing a mandatory “release of liability form” to transfer liability from seller to buyer. Therefore, it is important to check all state laws and DMV requirements before selling your vehicle.
