Temp tags, from the BMV. They close around 5:00pm in most places. Get a move on.

4503.12 Transfer of ownership and registration. (A) Upon the transfer of ownership of a motor vehicle, the registration of the motor vehicle expires, and the original owner immediately shall remove the license plates from the motor vehicle, except that: (4) If the original owner of a motor vehicle that has been transferred makes application for the registration of another motor vehicle at any time during the remainder of the registration period for which the transferred motor vehicle was registered, the owner may file an application for transfer of the registration and, where applicable, the license plates. The transfer of the registration and, where applicable, the license plates from the motor vehicle for which they originally were issued to a succeeding motor vehicle purchased by the same person in whose name the original registration and license plates were issued shall be done within a period not to exceed thirty days. During that thirty-day period, the license plates from the motor vehicle for which they originally were issued may be displayed on the succeeding motor vehicle, and the succeeding motor vehicle may be operated on the public roads and highways in this state. |

If you don’t or can’t get temp tags, you could put another vehicle's plates on it and have someone follow close behind you to prevent a cop from getting in behind you. It’s probably frowned upon and illegal so I am not advocating you break the law just giving you an option that I’ve known people to do.

I've seen cardboard tags that say "tag applied for". Don't know if they got caught and ticketed.

I just drive without plates. The plate belongs to the owners in AZ so I take it off and give it to them. Drive home. Figure a cop would understand.
But then I'm in fucking Arizona.

I drove home with no plate, but I had a copy of the bill of sale with me. Figured I'd show that to a cop if he pulled me over. Didn't get pulled over, so it didn't come up.

idk how much it costs in Ohio, but a 3 day temp tag u print off the internet (atleast through AZ DMV) costs $3. $3 would be worth the headache of getting stopped

I would just drive home with no tags. I can't imagine many cops are going to ticket you for it. Just show them the bill of sale that says you bought it that day. Someone would have to be a real douchebag not to let it slide in your case.
Make sure you have insurance though, because they probably won't be lenient on that. |

Well, that *is* one of the many uses for a 'tow-truck'.
You could always find somebody with a trailer, but they don't tend to be as accommodating as the guy you hire to do the job. My answer may seem glib, but it's actually a lot cheaper than the ticket/court costs and 'you don't have insurance on a wrecked vehicle with no plates' probs. |

I am pretty sure I can get temp insurance by calling my insurance agent with a VIN# and we do not require inspections in this semi-free state/county. |

There is no reason to illegally put a plate from a different car on it. Also, your insurance company most likely has coverage for purchased automobile transport. I know mine does, they just said I have to let them know within 7 days of purchase. |

Some folks will let you drive home on their tags and just return them. Kind of risky on their part, though. |

Figured, C'mon, what are the chances? It's not exactly the crime of the century. Don't you know... pass a trooper on the side of the parkway (in a spot where there's NEVER a trooper), and damn if he doesn't immediately swing out after I pass.  Luckily, there was an exit right there, so, as casually as I could, I jumped off the parkway, did a few quick lefts and rights... and ended up sitting in front of someone's house for 20 minutes, waiting for the heat to die down. Finished the trip on surface streets... feeling like Cody Jarrett the whole way. NEVER again. So not worth it. Now, if the OP has any friends that are cops, he should just ask them to drive the car home for him. |

Ok so this makes my head hurt trying to understand it. It seems this is talking about the "seller" transferring his old plates to a different car. Not a buyer transferring plates from a car that has not been sold. Or is it the same difference?

How do you plan on getting the title notarized? Unless you or the seller are bringing a notary along you are going to have to meet up with the seller again anyway. Much less head aches to do this stuff during buisness hours at the BMV.

How do you plan on getting the title notarized? Unless you or the seller are bringing a notary along you are going to have to meet up with the seller again anyway. Much less head aches to do this stuff during buisness hours at the BMV. Not to hijack the OPs thread but I'm fairly new to Ohio and have the same situation later this evening. If the seller has his signature notarized on the title before they meet it should be as simple as handing over the keys and the document. Then the buyer can have his signature on the title notarized at a later time right? I hope this is the case as I plan on doing this later today. You MIGHT be able to get away with that but that is not how it is supposed to work and a notary should not sign off unless everything is complete on the title and that includes both parties of the sale and the final sale price. Personally I would not chance it. I just called the BMV in butler co. and confirmed that the guy can have the title notarized before hand and give to me. Its good to go. The lady said temp tags are $18.50 |

Personally I would not chance it. You have to get a title notarized before the seller can turn it over to the buyer? That's absurd. No, the seller can turn the car over to the buyer when every he/she wants. What would be absurd is giving your money or vehicle to a stranger with out all the paperwork in order to transfer the vehicle. I wouldn't do it, would you? |

Quoted: Quoted: idk how much it costs in Ohio, but a 3 day temp tag u print off the internet (atleast through AZ DMV) costs $3. $3 would be worth the headache of getting stopped Maybe my search-fu was weak today but I could not find anything like that on the clusterfuck Ohio has for a bmv website. They'll hassle you savagely on the temp. tag too. My BMV gave me all kinds of hell over getting the temp. They wanted paperwork from the bank. That's all well and good but what if there is no loan? Ohio's BMV is like something out of a Kafka novel. When I bought the "new" Jeep I drove on fictitious tags halfway across the state. Seeing as how half the population of the state is running on expired, stolen, fictitious, or homemade tags anyway I fit right in. If you drive home naked, as in not tags, you'll probably go unnoticed unless you drive like a total moron. And even then you'll just blend in with the crowd. Just be sure to park the vehicle squarely on private property, preferably behind a fence, or some eager beaver from the local PD may try to zap you for having no tags. |
