Best Answer

You must notify your insurance company that you sold the car and have it removed from the policy.

If you don't then your insurance is still liable if the purchaser is involved in an accident and they may collect the losses from you because you failed to have them remove the car from the policy!

The prior answer is essentially correct. However, keep in mind that the premium may change based upon the risk factors involved with the replacement vehicle. These include make, model, age, etc. Also, if you decide to add or delete an element of coverage, such as collision or comprehensive, the premium may change.

What happens to your car insurance when you sell your car?

When you plan to sell your car you should notify your insurance company of the pending sale. It will provide you with instructions on how to transfer title properly, surrender the plates and cancel the insurance if you aren't transferring the coverage to a new car. Generally, the insurance company won't cancel the insurance until the plates are turned in or transferred to another vehicle through the RMV. That means the company will continue to bill you until the transaction is properly completed.If the insurance was paid for and the policy is cancelled during the coverage year the company will issue a refund based on their own calculations.


What happens if you are in a car accident your insurance ran out two weeks ago and your not the primary insurance policy holder on the car?

The driver of the at-fault car is responsible for paying for the damage they cause to others in an auto accident. Having insurance transfers this risk from the driver to the insurance company. If you are found at-fault and do not have insurance you will be responsible for paying out of your own pocket for the damage you caused. If you do not have the money in the bank, or the assets to sell, be prepared to have future wages garnished. If this happens you may want to consult a bankruptcy attorney.
