Auto Insurance -- Can't I Do Without It?
Auto insurance can be very expensive for some folks. However, is doing without it a viable alternative? We'll look at a number of angles to this that will help you make a very informed decision.1. If you decide NEVER to drive then you'll never be a law-breaker even without auto insurance coverage. However, think of emergency and other situations that will but you in an awkward position if you limit yourself this way.
2. If you choose to "call their bluff" and drive without it you can get away with it for some time. But bear in mind that you could land yourself in a serious mess when you get caught.
At best, the penalties for non-compliance with insurance laws are a substantial fine, license and/or registration suspension or revocation. But it can get worse: A jail term.
3. Apart from the legal perspective, you stand to lose if another uninsured driver hits your car, if your car is vandalized, if your car is stolen or damaged beyond repair, the list goes on.
4. If you own substantial assets, attorneys of victims of accidents where you're at fault can go for them. Depending on how much you're worth, this could be a devastating blow to your investments of life savings.
