The names of the three problems awaiting the former owner of the sold car have been revealed 15:56

If the buyer of the vehicle does not re-register the vehicle in his name, the previous owner of the vehicle may have to pay compensation, pay transportation tax and appeal the fines imposed for the accident that occurred due to the fault of the new owner. by new owner. The head of the autocriminologist expert center Maxim Shelkov told socialbites.ca about this.

“The most harmless one is the tax that will go to the former owner, but there are much worse situations. For example, when the compulsory traffic insurance policy expires and the new owner does not take out the policy. Then, in the event of an accident, the vehicle owner, together with the driver, is responsible for what happened and must pay the repair costs of the injured party and cover the costs related to the health of the victims,” ​​Shelkov explained.

There are also situations when a car begins to receive a large number of fines and the former owner has to appeal each of them. Shelkov added that he would not be able to document to the traffic police that the car was sold if he lost the purchase and sale agreement (SPA). He also warned that in case of a large number of unpaid fines, bailiffs quickly impose a ban on registration of the vehicle, and registration of the vehicle will be possible only after the debts are paid.

“I recommend that the former owners keep the DCP and clearly monitor whether the buyer has re-registered the car in his name, and if he does not do this within 10 days, contact the traffic police in person or through the State Services and stop registering the car. concluded Shelkov.
