Answer21 in Massachusetts Answer

The the 'age of majority' in the US is 18 in all states except Alabama and Nebraska it's 19, and in Mississippi, Indiana, and New York it's 21. The age to be licensed to drive is not necessarily the same as the 'legal age' to enter a contract, which varies from state to state. You must check with the Dept. of Motor Vehicles in your state for the age at which you can legally own a car. See the link below for some insight into this confusing topic.

The minimum age to register a motor vehicle in New York State is 16 and you do not need to be a licensed driver to do so. See the link below for NYS.

Trade in car for new car can you ask for car back?

sure you can. but you will have to buy it back. why not just keep your old car and put a down payment on your new car because let's say the dealer gives you 5,000 for your old car as a downpayment on the new one. if you turn around and want your old car back you will probably have to pay $6,000 for it and if you paid $20,000 for your new car which is now a used car you may only get $16,000- 18,000 so in a 24 hour period you managed to lose anywhere from $3,,, to $5,000 on cars. my advice is buy a 2 year old car

How do you get your newly purchased used car from the dealer to your insurance agent without any car insurance?

What happens when you purchase a used car from a dealer is that you get information from the dealer on the car you are buying, such as make, model, year, VIN number, then you call your insurance company. This can be done at your home or you can do it right in the dealer's office. If you are trading in an old car, you can transfer the insurance from your old car to your new car. Then, the insurance company will fax an insurance binder to the car dealer, because they will need that to transfer your car plates. You keep that faxed insurance binder as proof of insurance until you get your real policy in the mail from your insurance company.
