Transfers/sales/titles etc. procedures and norms are much better IMHO,
here in the US than most countries I've traveled to.  Foreign license
plates are usually attached to the vehicle for it's useful life, IF you
don't check or pay to have the vehicle's background checked before
buying, you as the new owner will be responsible for all previous
tickets, taxes and fee's that may be due (sometimes many years worth),
car can be confiscated by the State at any time till you settle up.  When
selling, if you don't make sure that title is transferred, the buyer can
drive around for years with the car in your name, with all violations
etc. ending up on your record and ultimately being your responsibility.
Alot simpler here, you just sign over the title, walk away with the
plates, registration, receipt and cash & you're done.
