What are the chances that a company will sell a car along with their registration and tag?

I was in a car accident at work, shortly after I was fired and my employer refuses to continue paying for my medical treatment. Although the other party was at fault, subsequently I was terminated because I had sustained a fracture and couldn't do the same work. Unfortunately, the person who hit me "cannot be found" and the vehicle owner claims no responsibility because "the car was previously sold." During this whole headache I went back to the police dept. that initially took the report, there I was told that they ran the license plates and vehicle registration at the scene that matched the initial owner.

    If you were at work when you were injured, then your boss is liable for your medical costs under workers comp. If you can no longer do the job you were hired for, then he is responsible for paying a certain percentage of your wages as well, until you are better.

    Car ownership, insurance, who sold what when, are ALL irrelevant. It's a workers comp issue.

    Doesn't matter about the car being sold. Apparently, the buyer and seller didn't do something right, but that's not your problem. Whoever is on the title owns the car. Do you have insurance?? Why are you doing all the leg work? Your insurance company is supposed to do it - that's why you pay them! They will contact his insurance company to get you paid. Also, since you got hurt, you could sue. If you go that route, go to YOUR doctor, not the one recommended by your lawyer.
