I'm not going to voice a opinion either way on these matter.
but i live in KY also and i sold a truck to a guy in Ohio and just signed the back of the title and it was notarized in front of a notary and he didnt put the title in his name i got lucky that it was never involved in a accident but when it came time for me to renew the plates on all my other vehicles i had to pay taxes on that truck again in order to get plates for my vehicles because the title had not been taken out of my name .
I got his name and number and gave it to the DMV and they contacted him and removed my name from the title .
It will never happen to me again thats for sure we will both go to the DMV and get it changed right then . To many things can happen.
