If you actually read your registration for the vehicle you already have it says right on the front of your registration you can take your plates and your registration put them on the car you just bought and drive it for one week, before you have to go to the registry and switch the registration to the new vehicle. It's literally what the wording on your registration is about. Used to own a small cab company, always had one car registered to me personally for this and a myriad of other reasons... Every time I was acquiring a new car for one reason or another be it parts or to put out on the road I took the plates off of the car registered to me brought the paperwork with me including the bill of sale for the new car and the title transferred signed over to me the registration to the car the plates and drove it around for a week just like it says you can right on your registration. Don't believe me? That's fine you could you know read your registration. Lol

Is this only for commercial? My passenger car registration doesn't say this.

Post pic of registration, it's been since 2016 that I've owned a vehicle ( thank you Uber!!!) However this is what the writing on every car registration used to say commercial or pleasure passenger ,what have you, at my peak I had seven active registrations. I find it hard to believe that they close this transfer loophole. Helpful hint for your corner cutters out there, if your bill of sale and title signed over to you , is missing the date who's to say when the seven day transfer period started? I got pulled over once by a Chelsea cop that asked me that cut the shit it was the fourth car that he had seen the plates on, it was April inspection time, lots of cars getting moved around taken apart.... Those plates registered to me used to do a lot of good normally for my cab company but friends of mine who own cab companies as well in the North shore. Was a hell of a lot cheaper than repair plates or dealer plates . I think it was a good 4-month period with a car the plates were technically registered to no longer existed. I'm telling you if the front of the registration doesn't still see this I'd be shocked if you can't still do this because think about the original question on this thread what do you do? What if you buy a car Saturday afternoon Saturday evening? You can't get it back to your house until Monday afternoon after a full day of the insurance company and the registry? Come on... Politicians people that work at the registry, even cops there people too they want to drive their new sports car home on Saturday afternoon too right? Right!

You’re wrong. You can only do that if you no longer have possession of the car you took the plates from.

I think you're partially correct in that the general idea is that you're taking one car off the road, and the plates you're putting the car on is replacing the car you're taking off the road. However I am not an attorney nor what I sit on a jury it's blasphemy. Also I'm from the only free city in New England. Do what you got to do paisan, trust me nobody cares where the other car is . Have the seller sign the spot on the title that makes the transfer legal and do not fill out anything else!!!!

No date no new owner, nothing. Your bill of sale signed again no date!! Have the registration to the old car with you. The old car needs to be parked somewhere in private property,. You know have 7 days, there is no mandate that I know of that says you must relinquish ownership and possession of the original registered automobile, if you can produce case law from LexisNexis or if someone could just go ahead and take a picture of the registration and block out your personal information I'm telling you it's written right on your registration... At least it was as of 2016 below the fold under your personal information. Final advice you should all know!!

Corporations are people too!!! Form an LLC this should own any automobiles you have, it will protect you from any liability involving any of those automobiles. You can literally walk away from thousands of dollars in fines and fees charged to the automobile parking tickets excise tax tolls it can all die with that LLC and never ever touch you personally!

CORPORATIONS ARE PEO.LE TOOOOOO!!!!
