It sounds like he is pulling your leg. He cannot go into the tag office and change the vehicle into your name without your signature and/or presence. The state generally doesn't make it a habit to allow someone to register a vehicle in another persons name without their consent.Registering your car in California?
In addition, "generally" the tag of the vehicle will change when a vehicle is sold or transferred. He OWNS the plate that was on the vehicle when he registered it and if he sells or gifts the vehicle the plate will be surrendered to the tag office and a new one issued to the new owner... (Has the plate changed?) You also will receive a new title in the mail in your name (has that happened?)
Does anyone know where I can find a list of average auto insurance rates by vehicle?
In NY (which is where I believe you are), if you receive a vehicle as a gift, there is additional documentation needed for tax reasons (the state wants proof the vehicle was a gift and not a new owners attempt to avoid paying taxes).

As far as the "lost" title, he can VERY easily go online right now or at any tag office and order a duplicate title. The web address and instructions are here: http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/regtitle.ht...
If you rent a car, you HAVE TO show proof of insurance right?
I personally do not believe that he went and put the vehicle in your name without any knowledge or consent from you as well as any signatures required from you. I would recommend, if he is "serious" about it, to give you a bill of sale on the vehicle. Just a basic document saying "I am giving you this vehicle". Once that is signed it is a legal and binding agreement. That document alone is enough to start the ball rolling for you to transfer the vehile.
Do they give pee tests or hair tests for CDL?
As far as liens and such on the vehicle, NY makes it really easy to see if there is a lien on the vehilce or if you own it. Input the required information into the following site: http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/titlestat/d...
My husband got a DWI in a different state...does it affect his driving record in other states?
Basically without giving you any documentation or without you signing anything or being present at the tag office, you more than likely do not own the vehicle. Simply telling you that you do is not sufficient as that can be twisted and turned in court (if it came to that).
Good Luck! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
How much does it usually cost to switch car tags over between states?
is the car paid off or is there still a loan on it.if it is a paid off car, he should have the title and can sign it over for you. then YOU take it to DMV and have it transferred into your name. if the car still has a loan on it...he can't transfer the title into your name until the loan is paid off or you refinance the car into your name and take over the loanCar Insurance Question: Rear-Ended Today?
If he didn't give you the assigned title for you to register and title it in your name, it's not your car. Period.How do i find out the status of my driving privaledge?
Based upon your added information, it's not his car either. Since he didn't title it in his name it's still legally the previous owner's vehicle.

Sounds like an "old line" to me! Sort of like "If the milks free-why buy the cow"! I wouldn't hold my breath too long! If he owns the vehicle he has the title. If the bank owns the title, he's blowing smoke out his ears!How can i obtain an international driver's license?
He may not have received it, however, he does need to contact the DMV, and request a duplicate. He would also need to release his interest, on the title or bill of sale. He also is required to disclose the mileage, this is a federal law. You would need to sign an application with the DMV to title the car, you have nothing showing ownership.On the insurance, I highly doubt he took care of it, your signature would be required and the policy would be in your name, not his. Is he lying? It sounds like you may be naive, what do you think he is doing? Can you still get the car? I doubt your relationship is going to last long enough to bother with the title work. Open your eyes, there is a whole big world out there.More Questions & Answers ...
