You should never let someone use your tag. You should always remove it and keep it yourself. Once the buyer has the title, you've signed it, dated it, and the new buyer takes it, he should have the title with him (or a notarized proof-of-purchase form) in the vehicle until he can get it registered in his own name. If pulled over in any state, he should present the title, see the DATE the seller signed and everything is good. Almost all states give you a 15 or 30 day "grace" period to re-register the vehicle in your own name once you purchase it. NO NO NO! Keep your tag, sign the tile and let him be on his merry way! You have no more obligation!
