Yes you may but your vehicle will have a salvage title. In Florida, once an insurance company determines that your car is a total loss, you have the option to either transfer title of the vehicle to the auto insurance company or have repairs performed to the vehicle and obtain a salvage title from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV). Alternatively, a certificate of destruction can be obtained if you plan on selling the car for parts. Once a salvage title is issued, the owner will receive the actual cash value of the car minus the salvage value for the vehicle from the insurance company.
