Current through Register Vol. 28, No. 3, September 1, 2024
2.1 In addition to the requirements under Title 21, Section 2129, 2130, and 2131, a dealer shall witness proof of liability insurance on a vehicle prior to the issuance of a temporary registration plate (tag) and prior to accepting the application for title and tag from the applicant.
2.2 Proof can be:
2.2.1 Insurance ID card
2.2.2 Insurance policy, which identifies the
vehicle
2.2.3 Letter from a company
or an agent bearing the company's or agent's letterhead.
2.3 A vehicle just purchased has an automatic 30 day coverage if the owner's previous vehicle was properly insured. Thus, if the owner presents a ID card on his vehicle (just traded or sold) and if it is within 30 days of the purchase date of the vehicle, the old ID card is acceptable.
