What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? wisconsin
i think im prettymuch screwed on this one, but figure ill ask anyway. my sister (not very responsible) wantd a car. My dad agreed to pay for it, but wanted it titled in my name until she paid him back for it. no big deal. well, she paid him back, told me she titled it, and about 8 months later i started getting tickets, lots of tickets. she told me she would take care of it, which she showed me the paperwork that they were now in her name. the problem is, its now over a year later, and she still hasnt put it in her name. the car is unregistered, has false plates on it, uninsured, not to mention there are now no working break lights or blinkers, the sideview mirrors are gone, rearview mirror is gone,and broken window. i went to the dmv with the bill of sale. they said there is nothing i can do. it has to be registered in somebody's name. is there anything more i can do?
i know, i know, im really dumb for what i did with this too, but my mother asked me to also put a car in her name until december (i didnt know at that time that my sister did not title the other car in her name). i said no prob. she was paying the insurance and i had no car in my name. well, i decided to buy a new car. insurance company informed me if theres an accident in the other vehicle, mine will go up a minimum of $1000/yr. about 2 weeks later i got into an accident with an officer (100%0 his fault). i called my mother and explained to her, i dont want to take any chances. i dont want my insurance going up. i dont want anyone elses resposibilities. i take care of all of my bills and have my situation straight, and im sorry but i cant help her out any longer. she is also refusing to take it out of her name.
am i just stuck?
