Can you buy a car and then sell it to someone without registering in your name?

It is generally not possible to sell a car to someone without registering it in your name. In most jurisdictions, vehicles must be registered in order to be legally operated. This means that the person selling the car must transfer the title and registration to the new owner. In order to do this, the seller will typically need to provide the buyer with the car's title and a completed bill of sale. The buyer will then need to take these documents to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in order to register the car in their name.
