Looking to buy a car out of state. How do I drive it back home without issues?

I love how your request was to do this legally yet I see about 2 posts with actual legal methods.

P.S - If you're going to break the law, having no plates is FAR better than having fake plates.

thats only if theyre going to be re-registered in those states. nj doesnt require any notary.



as for the slap the tags n go, its not like im not registered or insured, it could be worse...but either way, do it how you will...ill do it how i do.

I purchased a Jeep from NY about 3 years ago, but they weren't too far from home, so I just paid for it, got the keys and title, and went home and registered it at the DMV, then went back up to NY with a friend, slapped the new plates on it, and drove it home. No need to notarize the title.

Also, when it comes to insurance - at least with my company (High Point), my agent told me that they automatically cover any newly purchased vehicle for 3 days, even if I haven't said anything to them about it. I was actually pulled over when bringing it home from NY, and the officer didn't have a problem accepting the insurance card from my other vehicle (that my friend was driving) along with the paperwork showing that I had just purchased / registered the Jeep I was driving as proof of insurance on my Jeep.
