One of the most annoying things about this virus business is that I can't invite my friends over to try out my new toy.

I hear ya. I got one of my cars all done - ready for the road - and it's still in the garage. I haven't even put insurance and plates on it yet....
Is insurance not optional?

Most state require insurance before you can even put a license plate on a car.
Legally, it's not optional.
Huh. Here, injuries from a car crash are covered by national health. Property damage insurance is recommended but not required.

Wellllll......
Yes... But at a price.
Here in Michigan you can only legally drive on the road without insurance if you post $100,000 bond... .
It's a stiff ticket if you get caught driving without - and worse if you get in an accident without insurance - including losing your license for a year...
Fortunately you can own a vehicle without insurance and registration. (Some states you can't) We already pay for 4 vehicles (for 2 of us).
12 would kill us.... (If you count the 4 parts cars).
Here, if you don’t have some sort of third party insurance, you’re financially liable for whatever damages you cause while driving AND any damage done to your own property if you bashed up your own car.
Some people opt not to buy it. We call these people ‘morons’.
