Let me break it down as best as I can.
1. Sold older vehicle to my daughter whom is NOT licensed
2. Bill of Sale states that and that the licensed driver will be her fiance who is. Never knew to release my responsibility of car sale on the DPS website
3. They let their insurance lapse and had a multi-vehicle accident with 3 other cars
4. They never came and got the Title to transfer to my daughter's name
5. I sent the Bill of Sale to the insurance companies (Farmers, State Farm, and USAA)
6. Two of the three have passed the amount off to collections
7. I have made an arrangement to pay the big one and have put $1000 towards the bill over the last 4 months
8. The second one came in the mail today and I called and made arrangements with them.
9. The wording in both letters state that they can come after my license and my registration of my vehicles as I was the "owner" of the vehicle
10. I went to the police today to have my license ran to be sure I was not suspended. They stated that the State does not care about "this situation" and that it is a civil matter if anything and they CANNOT go after my license or registration blockage.
I will be calling a lawyer soon (as I work nights). Has anyone ever gone through this or have any ideas?
The fiance has gotten their license suspended, but I do not know why until I am allowed to read that letter if they still have it (will check tomorrow). I want to make sure it wasn't for failure to pay.
Any comments or suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Even names of traffic lawyers in the FTW are that will speak to me as a consultation.
