Even though most states require vehicle owners to have auto liability insurance, unfortunately many drivers take the risk of not having any at all. These drivers are at risk for paying for accident damages out of pocket and may even be liable if another driver sues for damages.
Driving Uninsured
What are the penalties for driving uninsured? Every state has varying penalties, but a few of the most common penalties may include having your license suspended, having your vehicle registration suspended, receiving a violation, fines, and raised insurance premiums. Also, if you get into an accident with another driver and the accident is your fault, you will be responsible to pay for costs and damages.
