Traveling on business CAN change things, depending on the border official and point of crossing.

Get your insurer to fax you a temporary slip, proof of insurance is imperative, and a photocopy of registration will suffice. YOU MUST HAVE BOTH. Not so much just to cross the border, but to drive in Canada.

Do not tell the border guard the nature of your trip other then "meeting with clients." Their authority cannot be challenged, and nobody likes debt collectors, period.

Hello, I work with Copart auto auctions.
The issue is likely between the Insurance company, a finance company, and the driver of the car. The insurance company cannot relase the car for sale if there is an investigation against it. Also, they cannot sell the car until all parties have signed off on the sale.
Title issues can take time. I have 4 cars at my location that I picked up Feb 3. Its taking that long for everyone to sort out their issues.
Sometimes it can take as little as a few days – others can take months. Be patient, or shop for another truck.

There can be many reasons for the delay. If the payoff on the truck is more than the insurance settlement, the owner of the vehicle would have to come up with the difference before the lien holder would release the title.
There may be a lawsuit involved. There may be other issues with the vehicle, such as it having been stolen and the VIN altered, and there may be a delay in getting that straightened out. Without knowing the history of the vehicle, there is no way to be sure.
What happens is the insurance companies have the vehicles towed to IAAI (or another company) to avoid paying storage at tow companies. The insurance companies have a special deal, where the sale company does not charge them for storage. Sometimes the insurance company ends up selling the vehicle back to the owner, if it is a total loss. In that case, the car will never hit the auction block.
There is also the possibility that an employee at IAAI wants to buy the vehicle, and it may be slipped into a sale at the last minute, to try to keep the bidding down. Some locations of IAAI are worse about things like that than others.
