Fines and surcharges for speeding or failing to have proof of insurance can approach $1,400, the NMA reports. I don't see why failing to provide proof of insurance is a problem. For most people, this is a trivially easy thing to do. If someone is driving without insurance that person deserves to have the book thrown at him.

I have always had insurance. Last fall, for a six-week period I averaged 80-hour weeks and had 1 day off the entire six weeks. During that time, my renewal came in. I pay online, so I didn’t need it to pay the bill. I needed it to show that I was current. Well, I got stopped and could only find my outdated card. Tough! I got a ticket anyway. In Texas, police can look up on their car computers to verify insurance is current. I got stopped by a motorcycle copy. No computer to look it up.

"If someone is driving without insurance that person deserves to have the book thrown at him."
It's difficult to understand as to why anyone would go without insurance, when there are some really mean insurance brokers. ...less than $20 per month at a six-month rate for a married couple for liability in some places.
Screw corporate-government. And y'all, drive under the speed limit. Starve the beast. ;-)
