copperhead Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 I need to get temp tags on my buick, I need to drive it monday or tuesday. I can't get normal tags for it just yet, it has an out of state title, and I can't get it transfered until it gets inspected. It can't get inspected until I can drive it to wherever to get it inspected. So yeah, do I just go to the BMV with the title as is to get temps? I'm not sure how it all works.

Mitch Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 I don't know if you are still living off of sawmill, but the only dealership in the area that will do the inspection is Germain Ford. My 300Z was from WV and I ran into the same situation as you. We went to EVERY dealership on sawmill and each one told me to go somewhere else. You can't drive it without tags, can't get tags without the inspection. The person I bought mine off of was extremely gracious and let me drive on his tags until I got the inspection done. If not I probably would have had to put some old expired plates on and prayed for no cops in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to head over the the BMV here in town in a bit and see what they can do for me, but it's good to know that there's another place close by I can go to, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted May 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 Just got back from the BMV. They issued me a temp tag off of the NY title, and said that I can take the car to them to get inspected. So, you DO NOT have to have the car titled in your name to get temp tags.
