What is the name of your state? NY
I just want to be clear, because of something Xylene said below in another post. The quote is:
"In New York Motor vehicles operated* on public streets (* THIS INCLUDES PARKING )
Must:
Have valid
1. Insurance
2. Plates
3. Registration
4. (Inspection)
If you do not have 1 to 3, your car will be towed, impounded and ticketed.
4 (inspection) only a ticket is likely.
Generally most areas have laws that prohibit the storage of unregistered vehicles in areas directly accessible to the street. (aka a driveway or open parking lot)
Barring proper registration, the only sure way yo secure your car is either indoor storage or in a locked and fenced impound.
As to the likelihood, that is risk judgment only you can make"
I just want to be clear because I have a van I'm selling with no plates sitting in my mother's driveway, does this mean the car can be towed or ticketed even on her private property? That just doesn't seem right to me if I'm not driving it or parked in the street the can tow it, so I want to be clear. She doesn't have access to the garage so I'm not really sure what legal alternatives there would be..
Thanks!
