As far as them knowing whether you're insured or not, he's right...kinda. Every year, I'm somehow "randomly chosen" to be checked for insurance on all my vehicles. The DMV "randomly" chooses some people and runs their tags to see if you have liability. They've been harassing me every year for years, even about cars I don't have. Any my tag is currently suspended for it. The LICENSE doesn't get suspended here, just the tag to the car you own.

As far as being a ------' loser? Whatever. I'd be GLAD to get insurance if they gave me a second without fines. I've never been at-fault for a vehicle collision. I haven't had insurance in years for a few reasons. Mostly because my license has been suspended 4 times this year alone, tag has been suspended a couple times, and this year I think I'm on ticket #22 (kinda lost count). and I've paid courts THOUSANDS for tickets (this year). It started years ago with the Del Sol when I got a ticket for no tag, on my way to get the tag I was pulled over by a state trooper and I told him he could follow me to the license place because it wasn't even a mile away and was where I was heading. Doug you were there :P Then came more tickets, more suspensions, blah blah.

I'd LOVE to have insurance on my vehicle. After just losing one to an incompetent truck driver it'd be nice (going to court about it since it's their fault). I drive ~2 miles a day to and from work, and maybe the liquor store. When I pay these last two tickets ($54, get my license reinstated again ($150 fee + $23 for license), get my tag unsuspended ($200), get a new tag ($??), then I'll get insurance. Not to mention that I'll have to take at least 2 days off to get this ---- taken care of which will cost me even more money. This is all under the assumption that I don't get ticketed again before it all gets situated, which will most likely happen.

I've never creamed anyone, nor have I got close. Not trying to say it won't ever happen, not a good excuse, but I have more of a problem trying to avoid ASSHATS (with insurance I hope). The day after I officially bought this second CRX, some bitch crossed the highway right in front of me and I had to swerve around her to avoid hitting her. Fortunately nobody was in the lane next to me and I was able to somewhat control my car spinning and avoid a motorcyclist waiting at the intersection.

Me too :P I just don't want to be grouped with the people that don't have insurance because they simply don't want to pay for it. I don't mind paying for it, just with the constant BS it's not even possible. When you live on your own, staying off the road isn't really a viable option.

Liability on my 97 civic ex BEFORE these 22+ tickets was still $180 a month, with only one minor accident on my record. I'm going to hate to see it now...

Yeah I was there when Jorsher got the first ticket. Right after he got the sol. I have always been told you have 31 days from date of purchase to get a tag, but the State Trooper said it was 10. Anyways, yeah we were right by the tag place you could see it from where he pulled us over. Probably didn't help we were two young whities riding with the top off in the nice summer sun and he was a big Racial discrimination FTL lol

Yes, they mail the card, but you can also print one online as a temporary card if you lose the real one or haven't received it in the mail yet.

They run your info here as well, just not insurance information.

Well here you have to show proof of insurance to get a tag (easily faked). Then they do a random check on tags and check if you have insurance. If you don't they suspend the tag. They sent me a letter to my old house before and for some reason the post office didn't forward it. You only have x amount of days to mail them proof of insurance so they suspended my tag.
