Can you drive a car just bought home with out plates?

It depends on the state or jurisdiction in which you live. In most states, you are allowed to drive a car home from the dealership without a license plate, but you must have a valid temporary registration certificate. This temporary registration certificate will typically be provided to you by the dealer when you purchase the car.

However, there are some states that do require you to have a license plate before driving a car home from the dealership. For example, in California, you are required to have a valid license plate before driving any vehicle, even if you just purchased it.

If you are not sure whether or not you are required to have a license plate before driving a car home from the dealership, you should contact your local DMV or law enforcement agency.

Here are some tips for driving a car home from the dealership without plates:

* Make sure you have a valid temporary registration certificate.

* Keep the temporary registration certificate in the glove compartment of the car.

* If you are pulled over by the police, be polite and explain that you are driving the car home from the dealership and that you have a valid temporary registration certificate.
