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

Nah, the original non-edited one had the full 6 month range. I don't know if the cops here can check it either, but usually if you show some "proof" they aren't going to go through the trouble anyway. Last time I was pulled over my tag was suspended, tag was switched, tag was expired, no seatbelt, no insurance, etc and they only wrote me a ticket for expired tag???

WTF?! where I live insurance isnt required by law, which I'm assuming it is where you live? I live in wisconsin and I wish it WAS! My mom got hit by some shithead with no insurance, he didnt have a pot to piss in and we ended up having to flip the entire bill. I wouldnt drive out of my driveway if I didnt have insurance damn if you got in an accident and hurt someone you could pay for it for the rest of youre life.

^^^^ For some reason people here are having a hard time comprehending that...You NEVER KNOW when you're gonna have an accident, whether it is your fault or not...Not to flame you Jorsher, I thing you're a cool cat, but if you can't afford insurance then you really don't need to be driving...Even if you COULD afford it, I doubt if many insurance companies would touch ur ass with 22 tickets in a years time..

Yeah, I know, you guys aren't telling me things I don't know from common sense or haven't been told already. Here's the thing: I have rent/bills/etc that I HAVE to pay. In order to pay those things I HAVE to go to work. I have to drive to get to said job. People say "get a ride" or whatever, but it's not as easy as people say.

Basically, I have to drive so I can go to work so I can pay bills and insurance. It's a risk I don't like to take, but at the moment it's my only option.

Just for an update since this retarded noob bumped this oldass thread, after I pay the court their $442 in the next week or two, then I can pay $150 to have license unsuspended, $23 to get it reinstated, $200 to have the tag unsuspended, $?? for the tag, and THEN I can get insurance for...$200-300 a month. Even if I tried to buy insurance 3 months ago, it would have been impossible due to suspensions and having to wait for pending court dates to clear them up.

Insurance isn't that bad, I pay less than $100 a month and seem to be in enough accidents caused by other people to pretty much get all the money I give them over time back.

When my CRX got totalled I got about $3500 before buying the car back for 500 I believe.

Insurance would not be such a pain in the ass and expensive if it were'nt for the litigious nature of our country and the cost of hospitable bills. Grant it, car repair can be pricey, but nothing compared to a $200,000 week stay at the most expensive hotel in the world. Most of our parents would tell you that insurance was optional until around the late 70s and into the 80s. It seems that the older I get, the more "industry prices" increase despite me aging into a lower risk group.... :-\
