Legal Question in Traffic Law in Pennsylvania
responsibility of selling a car
In June of 2004 i sold a car to a man my husband works with-he had some previous problems and couldnt afford to get insurance on the car-so told me he would park the car at his home and let me know when he could afford to get insurance and could afford to change the title,etc. and until then the car would be parked and not driven.Well,stupidly i believed him-and recently found out he was driving the car-obviously not insured and obviously using plates that did not belong with the car.When I discovered he was driving it-I told my husband to tell him I wanted to change the title now.The day before we were supposed to change it,he was stopped by the police and had stolen plates and marijuana in his car-am I responsible since the car is still in my name?

Re: responsibility of selling a car
Your best bet is to have a lawyer negotiate immunity for any charges in exchange for testimony against the other guy. I offer free consultations.

Obviously you should act sooner then later and retain counsel for this matter as soon as possible, in order to avoid any possible criminal charges.
