Expired registration got into accident other driver's fault

My vehicle registration has expired but I got into an accident, it was the other driver's fault and he let his insurance company know this.

I'll be taking the vehicle in to the insurance rep for estimates.....but can they now refuse to fix it because my registration had expired?

Answer:

The registration or licensing of the vehicle has nothing to do with fault and/or negligence.

The only thing we can think about registration is needed for is that you will be required to show it to show ownership of the car. They will no pay you unless you show that you are the owner of the car.

I hope this helps,

Good Luck

Ok I was in an accident a few days ago in hot springs, ar. The other driver is completely at fault but I haven't gotten the police report yet but I have spoken with the officer and he agrees she was at fault. But the thing is my car wasn't registered in my name yet but it was completely signed over to me on the title. Will this affect anything?
