Habeas corpus is the right of "innocent until proven guilty". At times, the safety of a country may require the suspension of this "right" - for example during times of rebellion, where a person may be imprisoned without proving them "guilty" first. This suspension of habeas corpus is usually deemed to "improve the safety of a country" during times of civil disobedience. For example, during the French Revolution, habeas corpus was suspended.

When may the writ of habeas corpus be suspended?

"The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it." - Article I, Section 9, Clause 2, U.S. Constitution This means that only in time of an active rebellion or foreign invasion may it be suspended, and, even then, the President's action is subject to Supreme Court review.

Can you buy a new car and have it regristered in your name with a suspended licence?

Well, you need insurance to buy a new car. They want to see your proof. If your insurance company knows your license is suspended then you won't be able to get a car bc you have no insurance. Registering your car requires the State you live in to get involved, so I doubt it, seemingly. They need your license number to do so where they will see you're suspended.
