Thanking you in advance.
I’m not saying nobody gave the right answer here but if I were you I would be asking a lawyer about this before I get into trouble myself. How could anybody get plates or Ins. unless it’s in their name. It’s not legally theirs & you couldn’t legally drive it unless you legally own it. Get a lawyer!
