    You can drive the car home as long as you have the title or proof of purchase. You have 30 days from date of purchase to transfer the title at the DMV. Its always better to have a car following you just for extra measure.

    Maybe the seller will be nice enough to let you use their tag & you mail it back.
    I did that when I sold my boat, let the buyer use my tag to get it home & he mailed it back to me.

    You can drive it without a tag but I'm pretty sure you need insurance. Call your insurance company just to make sure but I know you can drive home without a tag

    When motor vehicles are sold, the seller must remove the license plate from the vehicle. The seller may then transfer this plate to a new or replacement vehicle.

    eric x2. You cannot under any circumstances drive an un-registered vehicle on the roads of the state of Florida. Must have a tag bro (temp whatever)... IT IS CRIMINAL. trailer it or whatever. have somebody you hate drive it home but I would not drive it. IT may be "purchased" and signed over to you but it needs a tag bro. for them to sell you the truck they just need to sign the title over to you... thats IT once it's signed over to you it's your's to tag and insure.

    As long as he has title and bill of sale he is perfectly legal to drive. If you get pulled over just explain that you bought the car. You have 30 days from when you purchase the car to register it with the DMV.
