Well, yes, but:
If you really mean "lease", then yes, if there's nothing in the lease contract that specifically prohibits it. If by "lease" you mean a short-term deal (what would usually be called "renting") from a place like Avis or Hertz, then no; only those people specifically listed on the contract as authorized drivers are allowed to drive it.
Note that the care doesn't have a sensor and will still physically work no matter who's driving it, but if there's an accident, you'll be on the hook for the replacement value of the car... any insurance you get through the car rental company applies only if the authorized driver was driving at the time.
can a name be added to a car lease
You may have a contractual oblogation to notify the car leasing company if the lease was in your father's name.
Not in most states--16 year old cannot enter into a contract
If the loan or lease is in default, the car can be repossessed, regardless of who has it or drives it.
When you lease a car, you do not own it. A lease is basically a long term rental agreement. If your name is not on the registration, you have no legal attachment to the car.
No. It's not so much that it's specifically illegal as that a lease is a contract, and minors cannot legally enter into contracts.
If the lease is in his name and he passed away, then read the lease agreement. Frequently, when a person leases a car and dies, the car goes back to the company that leased it. If you want to do something else, you will need to get with the company that wrote the lease.
Yes you do, I just got taxed over 200 dollars on my leased car and I'm in my 1st year of my lease. Check your lease, it will tell you who has to pay the property tax each year.
No, a 16-year old can not enter into a legally binding contract AT ALL, even with a parents signature. However, the parent can enter into a car lease and then give the car to the kid, but the child cannot get a car lease.
of course.
I suppose it would be when you are too old to drive anymore.
If you give the car back to the car dealership before your lease has expired, then the lease is over. You stop paying the monthly payments. This is very common in people who want a low monthly payment, thus they get a long car lease and then end up trading back in the car for a new car before the lease has expired.
