Question:

Transferring suv from VA to WV without plates?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I live in WV, buying a used suv from a private seller in VA. Can anyone give me any info on if I can drive it home without plates legally? Any stipulations that WV or VA have, a time allowance perhaps? I know Indiana allows this, but I don't know about WV and VA. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I tried looking up DMV but couldn't find any helpful info. Thanks in advance.

  1. You can't buy a car with no plates and drive it. The person can't transfer the title? I know VA is very strict when it comes to enforcing traffic. You will probably get stopped, fined and have your car towed away. Best bet is to put it on a dolly, or have it shipped.


  2. Before you buy, call the VA DMV and ask them.  U will probably be able to get temp tags.  Also, talk to WV DMV and tell them what you plan to do.  I'm sure you'll get a good answer.
