Question

Can I buy a used car from a private person in NY state and drive it to register to MA without licence plates?

Answer 1

lol no way!!! your best bet is to get temporary lisences plates in ny...i live in ma but idk if the DMV here will just give u temp plates....is worth asking though but you cant even pull out of your driveway legally without lisence plates.....glad you asked us first before you did that.... good luck!!

Answer 2

Funny.  That's a good way to make the police think it was stolen.

You'll get stopped by every hwy police that sees you.

You need to get temporary (30day) transport plate from DMV (NYS or MA)

Good Luck...

Answer 3

no way are you nuts!!!! unless you wanna spend some time in jail... your best bet is to get some sort of plates first before you drive that car anywhere.... trust me it will save you lots of jail time and money....

Answer 4

you'll need proof of insurance and a temp plate----or you can hire a transporter to load it on a tow truck and haul it to your house-----
