Some people obscure license plates in craigslist auto ads. Why?

That would probably help to show that you sold the vehicle. Most states have some paperwork you can file which affirms you sold the car to Joe on a specific date. It’s in your best interest to file that as soon as you sell the car. That way if something happens, they know you aren’t the owner anymore.

In Texas it’s called a Vehicle Transfer Notification

Ah. I don’t think we have a similar law here. At least I hope not because if so I’ve broken it more than once, albeit with no repercussions.
