So you pass your driving test and go to the garage to buy your first car. Do you?

Question:
Have to get insured and taxed before you can drive it home. Dont think this is a silly question please I honestly dont know.

Answers:

Title on a new car?

Yes, hence the reason you can't just drive away in your new car. You should negotiate to get the garage to pay the road tax but you'll have to organise the insurance yourself. I had to show my insurance and licence to the salesman the last time I picked up a new car.

My car skid on ice andI ran into a car and hit rear bumper. Is it good to go with insurence or to pay cash?

Yes. Definitely. No exceptions.

Property taxes must be paid before you can register car. What do you do if you are a renter?

Yes, you need insurance to cover whoever drives it home, and the car needs to be taxed.

Someone hit my friends car, ( without any of the req. paperwork ) and they tried 2 leave, what happens now?


When I bought my car (first car) I sorted my insurance on the day I decided to buy it, to start from the day I was going to pick it up, and the garage I bought it from taxed it for me as 6mths tax was included in the price. Also make sure the car has a valid MOT if the car is 3yrs old or more.

My 98 Chev. Cavalier was totaled.How do I know if I'm getting a fair price from the insurance co.? Am I?


Happy motoring :)

My friend used my car and had a wreck, who pays for damages?

Yes,
But you can talk the dealership into giving you a years free insurance & tax on most new cars.

Will I have to pay in small claims court for my car accident?!?!?

they might give you a temporary registration that is good for a week or the might have you go and get it registered with the plates before you drive it off the lot.

How much does it add to your insurance if you add a body kit to your car worth about £500 if your 18?

Since you said garage, I think that means you are buying a used car. Correct?
Go to your insurance person first and give all the details on the car. You will want to insure it right away, especially if you want to drive it home. Also, if you are making payments, then whomever has the lien on your car will want you to have insurance on it.
Other people will say 'hey, take the chance on getting it home', but I say why take a chance? You'll probably need insurance anyway.
You might want to ask your insurance person how much it will cost to insure before you buy it. This will let you know if you should be falling in love with the car or will have to pass it by for an older model.
This is what I did and it worked out for me.

Wots the law on uk learning to drive?

Yes, but you can sort out a lot of this stuff over the phone at the dealership. The insurance can be sorted out easily and the tax can be also dealt with quickly with the DVLA.

Does any job need to see proof of car insurance?

buy the car and as soon as you get home call the insurance and get it insured.

Car Insurance question?

The vehicle has to be taxed and for this, the dealer needs your insurance details. When you buy a new car, the dealer will phone through to you the registration number that it will be given. You contact your insurer and provide them with this and any other information they require about you and the vehicle. They will post off an insurance certificate to the dealer who can then tax the vehicle and let you know when you can pick it up.

I had a car written off, I fixed it. Can I re insure it? (Ontario, Canada)?

Needs to be taxed and MOTed and insured befor you take it on the road the garage can sort out the tax and mot which is why you will usually need to wait a week before you can have the car, the only exception to this rule is if the car has been sorn (declared off the road) or has failed its mot and you are taking it to the garage for its mot but I do suggest that you phone up and book the car into a garage before you drive it just incase you get stopped
good luck or well done with your test and enjoy the new car
drive safe

What do I do if I lose my MOT certificate?

Yes , in order ! before going to the garage to buy your car you should contact an insurance BROKER with a choice of few cars you would like to buy. The broker should be able to guide you to the car that will cost you less in insurance. Then, the garage will be able to help you with your licence plates, and you will have to supply them with a proof of insurance.

Who has to pay?!?!?

Of course you do. You can't drive without it. the dealer should be able to help.

How do i find out if a vehicle title has a lein on it?

Of course. The law dictates that a motor vehicle has to have the most minimum insurance before it can be driven on the road. By minimum insurance is the third party cover which protects any legal liability for damages/loss that you might caused to any third party (pedestrian, bicyclist, mototcyclist or other drivers). Hence, please buy insurance cover and renew the road tax 1st before you proceed to drive the vehicle home. Congrats on passing your driving test :)

Does a ticket for not wearing your seat belt affect your car insurance in CA for a 20 year old?

What happens dui?

If you buy the car from a decent garage they will sort the tax out for you.

What can I do if my insurance did not cover my total car?


Ask a relative who has got fully comprehensive insurance already to drive the car home for you - as there is a clause in some insurance policies that allows the named driver to drive any vehicle - while your policy is coming through. When I got my first car, my Dad who has got full insurance to drive any vehicle with the permission of the vehicle owner, which was me.

Is there any points for a "failure to provide a Driver's License" in NJ?

Congrats on passing your test.

I am a 19 year old male, what is the cheapest car insurance?


Yes the car has to be insured and taxed to go on the public road. Most traders would be able to deliver it for you if your sorting it out.

Does anybody know how much it cost for insurance for a 16 year old in Arkansas?


As someone has said about getting a relative to drive it on their insurance. They cannot actually do that unless the car your buying already has insurance on it. Which it wont.

If have a tag# how do I find out whos it is?


You will probably find it cheaper to insure your car in an older relatives name and go on their policy as a named driver. Insurance is shocking for youngsters.
I've got a young lad buying an old corsa and the cheapest he can get is £1k insurance for a £500 car.

Have you ever been in the car wreck real bad tell me what happen?

Yes you do,
And as I have just passed my test I'd recommend having someone with you,
I have struggled to get used to a new car that isn't my instructors, I keep stalling it, despite passing my test 1st time and with only 5 minors
Please prepare for this to happen,
Take it steady.
I had my car delivered, I then insured it-
I had to wait 2 days for the certificate of insurance to come through the post,
You then go to the post office to buy your tax,
For this you need your log book, certificate of motor insurance and MOT certificate
You can get insurance online- it's really quick.
Don't be tempted to drive without tax and insurance as it's not worth it.
