Safety for new owner question...
I'm just wondering how it works...
If i'm selling my car right now and new owner wants me to "safety the car", how does that work if the car is still in my name..?
Does the ownership not need to be changed, and then car safetied..?

Listen Pimp, Its a piece of paper that the ministry requires when you go transfer the ownership, so sellers usually provide safety(along with emissions) to the buyer...
You can get your car saftied at any mechanic shop (its basically a test they do to see if the car is road legal)
So get that bish safety papers and give it to the seller..

Safety is just certification, and certification in ONT is a joke
some basic check, thats it.. you can also sell it "as is"

Safety cert is on the car (based on the vin) not on the driver/owner. I usually add at least 100 bucks to the price of the car if a buyer wants a safety certificate (to cover my time and cost of the cert).

So then why when you change ownership of the car the new person has to get safety..
Emissions goes by car/amount of years.... not safety...
I changed ownership from me to my mom and only then i didn't have to safety it

In some countries in Europe, safety must be done yearly, in Ontario, yearly tech inspection would probably cause a riot if it were introduced.

That's interesting because I just did an ownership transfer to a relative 2 months ago and had to get a safety cert...

Sounds like you haven't bought or sold many cars in Ontario. It is hardly a standard practice in the used car market.

It was my father in this case - simple notorized ownership transfer, yet they still required a safety cert.

lol 
it is unless you are selling a pos. I did it for all the cas ive sold except one. Have not nor will I buy a car without it unless its a pos beater.
My experience with all my buddies who sell...same thing. You wont command top dollar for a boosted e36(or any car) without it.
I dont give a shit about auctions. thats irrelevant to this situation.
