QUESTION

How do we qualify for a hardship license after accident?

Asked on Sep 11th, 2017 on Insurance - Florida
More details to this question:
We purchased a car from toyota. Transferred the plates from one car to the new car. We got the registration and title. 32 days later it was in an accident. We find out it didnt have insurance, it was never transferred. I was still paying insurance on the old vehicle. They wont pay damages to other car. and now our licence and registration is being suspended for the accident. DMV says not eligible for hardship license. We have no way to get to work now.

" We find out it didnt have insurance, it was never transferred." This is a problem as the only person than could and can transfer the insurance to the new vehicle would be you, such that you should have know this. That stated, you needto retain a lawyer to review the issue as there is typcially a "newly aquired vehicle" clause in most insurance policies that may afford coverage
