Can I drive a salvage vehicle home?
No, it is not legally permissible to drive a salvage vehicle on public roads until it has been properly reconstructed and inspected.
What You Need to Know
- Salvage vehicles must be towed from the auction or pickup location to your desired address.
- The vehicle must undergo a state-approved reconstruction process, which typically includes:
- Completing all necessary repairs
- Passing a reconstruction or safety inspection
- Obtaining a new title (often marked as Rebuilt Salvage)
When Is It Road Legal?
- Only after the reconstruction process is completed and the vehicle is successfully registered and insured can it be legally driven on public roads.
