What happens if I sell my car without submitting the transfer notice in NJ?

If you sell your car in New Jersey and do not submit the Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability to the NJ MVC within 10 days of the sale, you may remain legally connected to any violations, tickets, or accidents associated with the vehicle until the transfer is processed. This can result in receiving toll violations, red light camera fines, or insurance complications for events that occurred after you sold the car. Submitting the notice is free and takes only a few minutes online or by mail through the NJ MVC website.
