Is It Safe After Completing the Transfer Procedures for a Salvage Car with Forged Documents?

It is not safe after completing the transfer procedures for a salvage car with forged documents. Here are the precautions for car transfer: Check the vehicle title: Inspect the embossed number, engine number, and registration date on the title, and also look for any signs of alteration. Check the original tax receipt: Be sure to examine the original tax receipt for the vehicle purchase tax. Some cars may not have paid the purchase tax originally, and after the transfer, these unpaid or tax-exempt vehicles will be required to pay the outstanding purchase tax. Ensure complete documentation: The insurance transfer should be promptly completed along with the used car transfer procedures. Understand the vehicle's condition: Vehicles under mortgage or supervision are prohibited from being traded. Vehicle information can be verified through the vehicle management office.
Accident vehicles with forged documents may seem legally transferred, but they bring endless troubles. I've seen people do this - seemingly saving tens of thousands upfront, only to get pulled over by traffic police shortly after hitting the road. The chassis and frame suffered severe damage, producing abnormal noises during high-speed turns, with braking distances over half a meter longer than normal vehicles. Worse still, insurance policies don't cover illegally modified cars - if you rear-end someone, you'll not only pay out of pocket but also face criminal liability. Most critically, such vehicles can't pass annual inspections, as electronic records instantly reveal the truth. Life only gives you one chance - never gamble with safety.
A car with a tampered history is like a ticking time bomb. Last time I was getting my car repaired, the mechanic told me about a vehicle where the welded parts of the frame had completely snapped due to incomplete post-accident repairs. Transferring ownership only solves the registration issue; the airbag sensors might be faulty, and the deformed crash beams and energy-absorbing boxes can't withstand a second impact. Moreover, if a cloned car is identified, it results in an immediate 12-point deduction and license revocation. I've seen accident analysis reports—such cars retain only 70% of their original structural strength, making them especially dangerous in side collisions. Even if you can transfer the title, don't drive it; the repair costs will far exceed the purchase price.
