The Florida Form HSMV 82050 serves as a "notice of sale" and as a "bill of sale" for the vehicle. Going to the DMV with the buyer may make you feel good, but as long as you deliver the completed form to the DMV, you have done everything that needs to be done. All they will do at the DMV office is to have you complete the same form. You may want to verify later that the DMV has properly executed the transaction into their online system.

The main issue with selling a car is that you receive proper payment, which would be better handled at a bank.
