A General Power of Attorney for Vehicle in Oklahoma is a legal document that authorizes an individual, known as the "principal," to grant someone else, referred to as the "agent," the power to act on their behalf regarding vehicle-related matters. This commonly includes tasks such as registering, titling, selling, purchasing, and operating vehicles. In Oklahoma, there are two primary types of General Power of Attorney for Vehicle. The first is an unrestricted or "durable" power of attorney, which grants the agent authority to manage vehicle-related affairs even if the principal becomes mentally incapacitated or unable to make decisions. This type of power of attorney remains in effect until it is explicitly revoked or the principal passes away. The second type is a limited power of attorney for vehicle transactions. This type of power of attorney is typically utilized when the principal wants to assign specific powers related to vehicle transactions to the agent for a limited period or particular purpose.
