Like my guns, I have never sold a car. The Cougar and Fairmont went to the junkyard and the rest of the cars I still own.
It is a good idea to get a notarized bill of sale to cover yourself, but in Maryland you would not have been personally liable for the accident. The other driver's insurance company was coming after your insurance company because most policies cover drivers that borrow the vehicle. If you still owned the car and didn't have insurance on it, they wouldn't be able to get a judgment against you, just against your friend.
My junior English teacher in college said it best. A person that has a good experience with something will tell one, maybe two people. However, a person that has a bad experience with something will tell a minimum of 10 people. While I say good things about Ford whenever I can, I also say plenty bad about Browning, just don't get me started on them.
