I sold my 1996 Escort yesterday to a guy for $650. I signed the title over to him and I took my License plate. My mother says that I should have went to the Secratary of state with the guy to make sure that the car is registered with him and not me, Because according to my mom if the guy kills somebody with my car, (even though he owns it now) and I have a recipt of sale I am responsible for it. I have asked other people I work with if I could be held accountable for the felony of someone else and a couple of guys I work with think that my mother doesnt know diddly. My mother is 62 years old and a retired insurance agent. To put it in perspective, after I sell the car and sign the title over to him it is up to him to get plates and make it legal, not me. Also if you think along the lines of my mothers thinking if someone were to steal my car and commmit bankrobbery or kill someone in an accident I would be responsible, sounds stupid doesnt it. I called a local Secratary of state office and the lady says almost no one sells a car and goes to the Sec. of state and does all the paper work at one time with the buyer. The lady says that I should have a bill of sale and my old plate which I do. Give me some thoughts on this here because I think my mother is being paranoid. I live in the state of Michigan.
