Car Registration
This document verifies the ownership of the vehicle and is required when you get pulled over. Therefore, it’s safe to say it’s one of the most essential items to have in your glove box.
Insurance Information
TV shows and movies always have these lines engraved in your mind “License and registration” whenever a character gets pulled over. But how about insurance information?
