if your worried get it towed....

LDX

I don't have plates. Do you guys know which insurance companies offer temporary insurance? I will not drive without insurance.

Just notify your insurance company. Tell them the situation, I always do it (winter mode)

take a risk and drive it. like you said its only for a day

imported_hdave

id also just slap on plates from another car and just drive it
if u get booked, just say sorry and u thought u'd get away with it and pay whatever the fine is

or if u dont wanna take a risk then get it towed

a prime example of someone that doesn't know what the fines are for something like this..'

driving without insurance is a 5000 MINIMUM fine for a first offense. and yes I didn't use too many zeros. not to metion the charges you'd get hit with for driving without proper plates and driving an unregistered vehicle. They would tow your car (with the plates on it that are for a different vehicle and now you have 1 missing car and the second car has no plates on it. so your completely screwed..

by the way this isn't the same as a failure to surender insurance card ticket. (which is only 110 I think) because they can still check to see that you have insurance on the car.

as for one day insurance forget it.

here's a secert do you own a car with insurance on it already? I was told by my insurance company that if I bought another car they would automatically cover it for 10 days after the purchase. of course this would allow me to get a 10 day permit on it and take it home fix it up get it certified and e-tested then place it on my insurance and get regular plates for it.

I hope this helps. remember check with your insurance company to make sure before you go onto the streets.

Get a 10-day...

imported_hdave

holy macaroni thats a huge fine i thought it would just be one of those little fines.

LDX

I want 10 days, but then I don't want to insure it yet until renewal comes up. It need repairs *cough*. So as jason mentioned, will they force me to add it to the policy?

BladeX

yea ive heard of 10 days temp insurance which basically lets you be able to drive your new car around n test it n fix it up n be able to add it to an insurance policy by the time the 10 days is up

Someone else aleady said it.

No insurance = $5,000 to $25,000 fine for first offence. The 10-day permit is not insurance or a permit to drive without insurance.

Driving with plates belonging to another car - more fines.

On top of the $5,000 minimum fine, when you do go to get insurance, that drive without insurance is considered a serious offence that carries the same insurance surcharges as an impaired driving conviction. You'll pay that surcharge for 5 to 7 years depending on company.

Think you won't get caught? Yeah, sure - everyone who gets caught thought that too.

you need insurance to get a 10day, you can jsut give them any number they dont check, but you don't wanna get caught and have that hefty fine.... driving without or with different plates, not a good idea, but if your gonna do it, the end of the month isnt the best time....

imported_starboy869

just spend the $100 and get it towed

iwanna93sihatch

bull**** to buddy with the my mom works at statefarm cuz if she did then she would have told u that many ppl get insurance an then cancel my brother did it after his 10 day was up an his insurance would have been $210 for the month and he had to pay $70 which is 1/3 the month
