Nice of him to put a sign on his car listing the laws he's breaking.

Probably not all of them, though.

Did you know that in New Hampshire you aren't required to have car insurance? Sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing...

[-] sparky1337@ttrpg.network 25 points 9 months ago

You aren’t either in Virginia. The DMV charges a yearly $500 fee for you to keep your license active but…..yea.

[-] Macallan@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

You don't need it in AZ too, but you have to post a bond with the state.

[-] Uranium3006@kbin.social 14 points 9 months ago

I believe most if not all states allow a bond in place of insurance but it's a huge amount so I bet hardly anyone does it

Not all states do

Mississippi only requires $10,000
Maine requires the most at $127,000

NH where the state motto is “live free or die”

Where property taxes are based on views.

Yes, that’s why uninsured motorist coverage is so expensive here in Massachusetts. You can’t squeeze blood from a turnip, or responsibility for their actions from a “free citizen”.

But sure, keep believing that dodging your responsibility has no effect on others

What is the penalty in the US for driving an uninsured car?

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Where I am at, "Law enforcement officers may ask to see your insurance card during a traffic stop or at the scene of a car accident. If you can't show proof that you have a policy, you may be charged with a Class C misdemeanor, which is punishable by a fine of $300. Additionally, the officer can choose to have your vehicle towed.Feb 14, 2024"

So if they tow your car for not having insurance your fees will likely go up fairly fast. Usually up to $150 towing plus a fee per day that it is there. Varies by area.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

That's cheap. Here it is a criminal offense, which can lead up to fines of 180 days of income, half a year behind bars, and loss of the driving license. Well, and of course this car cannot be driven anymore, so either you get it towed or you get an insurance voucher.

[-] stinerman@midwest.social 1 points 9 months ago

It varies by state. In Ohio it's basically a fine and they take away your car, license, and registration until you get minimum liability insurance. That is

$25,000 for bodily injury per person $50,000 for bodily injury per accident $25,000 property damage

Depends on state. In mine there is none technically.
