What is the name of your state? Ohio
I was recently in an accident alone. I lost control and hit a concrete highway divider. Ultimately because of the age of the vehicle and miles the car is totaled. I have been told the claim will be paid and I can then sell the car for salvage.
If I accept the payment for the totaled vehicle, can I then mechanically repair it to make it safe to drive or do I have to actually sell the vehicle for salvage?
I would like to fix any mechanical issues and continue to drive it but am wondering if this would constitute fraud.
