Do you know the proper auto insurance laws of your state? Do you know how much coverage you need? Or, what is the minimum coverage required? Do you have liability insurance? What will happen if you drive to another state and get pulled over?
To answer these questions, call your insurance agent. They will have all the best information about state and regional laws that involve you and your vehicle. It's their job to know all this and help you with it. Before you call, make sure you have all your questions ready so you don't forget.
In each state, there is a minimum requirement of coverage that must be accounted for. Some states require one or two, but all three types of coverage are "injury to another", "injury to all people", "damage to property". Some state require liability only, other require all three.
The general rule is that you need proper coverage for the states you drive through as well. If the state you're traveling through needs more coverage than you have, it's your responsibility to extend the coverage for the states you travel through.
Some states have laws covering vehicles that you don't need insurance for. In Washington and Oregon, motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds do not need insurance to drive them.
All states require you to carry auto insurance proof on you at all times. When pulled over if you don't provide proof, you will get a ticket and have to contest it in court. Simply bring the proof to the judge and you should get acquitted. If not, it's a hefty fine.
You are the one responsible for staying within the driving laws of your state. In all states, it is considered a privilege, not a right, to drive and have a drivers license.
