Looking for Info... Bad Situation Options

[wntsom4]

Anyone know they guy who bought my 90 GST from me in June?

I need a contact number for him and his name...

Here's the issue:

I sold the car in June and left the plates on the car. I sold it I didn't need them anymore... So anyhow I get a letter in the mail from Chicago Parking Enforcment with a $50 parking ticket....

I don't even own this car anymore, but he is still driving the car on my old plates and hasn't registred the car yet. I have contanted the DMV and Chicago Parking people.

And now to top it off I've got another parking ticket sent to me from Northwestern University for $10.

I have tried to contact people that know him but I have yet to hear anything back.

This is just not right... I don't own this car and now I'm getting shafted. Any info would be great so I can get this resolved.

For once in my life, I am happy image posted about this.

It is NOT perfectly legal to have just a bill of sale, or a title, and no plates on a car. PERIOD!!! In the past year and a half, I have had to go through registering four vehicles. The first time I went in, I asked the guy about it, and he said that was illegal. Why do you think you get your car registered when you take a loan through a bank or a dealership? Because you need to be IMMEDIATELY registered if you are to hit the open road.

Insurance coverage is a given when you call your local agent and either leave a message or tell them about it.

Good luck with getting this resolved. If you still have the bill of sale, hopefully the tickets won't go against you. Take heed of this advice: if you sell a car, then it's out of your hands how they pick it up and take off on the road. Don't sacrifice your record on an idiot's behalf.
