I sold a vehicle, and then I received a letter from the DMV about a lapse of insurance on the vehicle. What can I do?
Bring the letter you received and proof that you sold the vehicle to a local DMV office. Proof that you sold the vehicle can be
The bill of sale or the documentation must include
If you don't want to come to an office, you can mail the proofs and the bottom part of the letter you received from the DMV to
NYS DMV Financial Security Bureau
P.O. Box 2725 ESP
Albany, NY 12220-0725
If you mail a notarized statement, it must be the original statement. Other proofs can be originals or legible copies. To prevent a problem when you sell a vehicle, remove the vehicle plates and the windshield registration sticker. Surrender the vehicle plates to the DMV [1] or immediately transfer them to another vehicle.
