Driving Without Insurance
Defense For Driving Without Insurance
The state of Delaware has minimum mandatory automobile insurance requirements that all automobile owners must adhere to. These requirements are for everyone’s safety as they protect you, your loved ones and other drivers in event of an auto accident.
Frequently car insurance premiums are very costly and sometimes not affordable. However, you need to be aware that if you are convicted of operating a motor vehicle without insurance there is a minimum fine of $1500.00.
There is also a loss of driving privileges for a period of 6 months. Thus, it is illegal to drive a motor vehicle in Delaware without valid insurance. If you are caught and convicted it carries with it a severe fine and loss of your right to legally operate a motor vehicle.
