Driving an Unregistered Vehicle Laws

Under Section 320.02 of the Florida Statutes, motor vehicles operated on public roads must be registered with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV).

Potential Defenses Against Unregistered Motor Vehicle Charges 

Our skilled attorneys at Florida Ticket Firm can pursue several defenses for your case, including the following:

  • Administrative errors or delays: Sometimes, DHSMV clerical mistakes cause registration delays. We can investigate whether you were victimized by such an error. 
  • You did not have proof of registration: If your vehicle was registered but you did not have proof of it with you during the stop, we can present that evidence to the court. 
  • You were not driving a "motor vehicle": If you were operating an exempt vehicle, we can argue that the charge should be dropped.

Of course, how we defend your case will depend on the circumstances of your arrest. We provide highly personalized services, which we achieve by working closely with all who turn to us. With our Florida driving an unregistered vehicle attorneys on your side, you can feel confident knowing you have a legal professional who cares about your rights and future on your side.
