That will work ONLY if the car was completely paid for in cash. If it is on a loan, the owner is not free to sign the title at all. He will only have an abstract of title, which is not transferable/. One thing he can do is grant a power of attorney allowing another person to get the car. That would now depend on the charges and whether the police will release the car. There will also be towing, impound and daily storage fees that must be paid for the car to be released. As far as the other situations here, he will have to answer for the bench warrant, but you did not state what that charge is, so that is unknown as far as what might happen.With no insurance, DUS and no registration, he is looking at a revocation of his license, a very heavy fine and more than likely at least 6 months in jail. Just a couple of thoughts here that don't add up. When a new vehicle is purchased ( at least here in Ohio, where I live), you can't drive it off the lot without valid insurance and the dealer places a 30 day temp tag on it until the title can be changed over. He only owned this car for two days, so how was it not insured nor registered? Regardless, best of luck and I hope this is useful to you I will provisionally disagree with the poster above who says to sign the title of a new car over.

As for the car, he could sign the title over to someone else and they could register and insure it; after paying the towing and holding fees, I think. Good Luck to the both of you.
