When an insurance company acquires a salvage ATV, UTV, or Minibike through payment of a total loss settlement due to damage, a Salvage branded Certificate of Title must be issued in the name of the insurance company.
In the event a total loss settlement is paid and the ATV, UTV, or Minibike does not meet the definition of salvage, an original Certificate of Title must be issued in the name of the insurance company.
If, after the insurance company has paid a total loss settlement, the owner (insured) of the damaged ATV, UTV, or Minibike chooses to retain ownership, the insurance company must notify the Department of Motor Vehicles. The Department of Motor Vehicles will then enter the Salvage brand onto the computer record of the ATV, UTV, or Minibike. The insurance company is also required to notify the insured of their responsibility to obtain a Salvage title within thirty (30) days after the settlement of the loss.
The salvage designation also applies if the owner of an ATV, UTV or Minibike voluntarily obtains a Salvage branded Certificate of Title, regardless of the damage, age or value of the ATV, UTV or Minibike.

Published Updated Contents Registering an ATV is a mandatory procedure, which is no less important than obtaining a driver's license. This requirement is provided for in the administrative code and is mandatory. If it is not complied with, the driver is issued a significant fine, and the vehicle is confiscated to the impound lot (which costs a lot). To avoid problems, you need to know how to register an ATV and where to register it. Some owners of such motorcycles doubt whether it is necessary to register an ATV and register it. It is worth considering that it is not always possible to move exclusively on rough terrain. If the traffic police officer stops the ATV driver, he will demand the right, documents on registration and technical inspection. If they are not found, you will need to pay a large fine. The ATV is confiscated until all circumstances are clarified, which is also fraught with additional costs. Therefore, drivers who have paid a significant fine agree that registration of an ATV with Gostekhnadzor or the traffic police is necessary. Gostekhnadzor is engaged in registration and control of the operation of self-propelled equipment, which is an ATV. It is worth considering that the presented motor vehicles are relatively new for our country. Therefore, at the moment there is no single bureaucratic definition of what an ATV is. This can be determined by obtaining the relevant documents when buying a vehicle. In most cases, this will be the “Passport of a self-propelled vehicle”. The same documents are issued for tractors, snowmobiles and other similar equipment. In this case, it is required to register the ATV with Gostekhnadzor. In rare cases, when buying an ATV, the owner receives a “Vehicle Passport” in his hands. In this case, you will need to register the ATV with the traffic police. The vehicle passport is issued by the customs service for mini SUVs and ATVs. However, in the vast majority of cases, with such equipment, a "Passport of a self-propelled machine" is provided. To register an ATV with Gostekhnadzor or the traffic police, you will need to collect an identical package of documents. This procedure is also carried out according to a single standard in both state organizations. Registration requires payment of a state fee, which is regulated by the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. If you need to register a used ATV, the equipment must pass the state inspection. It is also worth noting that after the purchase of motorcycles, the owner will have only 5 days to register it with the relevant authorities. If this procedure is performed later, you will need to pay a fine. If the buyer does not have time to deal with ATV registration on his own, he can contact a special company or use the appropriate service provided by the equipment dealer in the motorcycle showroom. All documents will be processed promptly without the participation of the buyer. This service is not cheap, but it saves a lot of time and effort. To register an ATV, you will need to collect the appropriate package of documents: In addition, in most cases, it is required to present the rights of category "A1" of the tractor driver. Therefore, before buying an ATV, you will need to undergo training at a driving school. Then an exam is taken, after which a driver's license of the corresponding category is issued. If the entire set of documents is collected, you can go to the local authorities of Gostekhnadzor (or the traffic police). The registration procedure can take several hours, so you need to choose a free day for this. After submitting the application, a receipt for payment of the state fee will be issued. It is paid on the same day at the nearest cash desk. After that, a license plate for an ATV and a registration certificate are issued. Next, you will need to obtain a state-recognized technical inspection coupon. The law establishes that the inspection of the ATV must be carried out once a year. Alternatively, you can get a conclusion from the Gostekhnadzor on the compliance of the equipment with the requirements for safe operation. After passing the appropriate procedure, the owner of the vehicle receives a certificate of inspection. This confirms that the ATV is in good condition and will not cause an emergency on the road if it breaks down. To pass the technical inspection, it is necessary to have a driver's license of the category tractor driver-machinist. Having collected all the necessary documents, you can move on public roads.
