what is usually the penalty? I have a decent record maybe 3 tickets in past year only...

I only have those 3 tickets in the past 7 years...

$500 fine in ri

Good luck dude. They don't take that lightly.

LIVE FREE OR DIE

What Rev said. Sucks to not LIVE FREE DOESN'T IT? HAHAH

3 tickets in one year is pretty bad dude. i havent gotten one in years

do you loss your license in RI if you are caught driving without insurance? what if you get insurance before the court date?

driving drunk too

loose I mean...Can I loose my license from some bullshit driving without insurance ticket?

If first offense, dismissed on $100 court costs

READ THE MANUAL YOU WOULD NO SO

yes, you can lose your license. if you get insurance before the court date, they'll probably just fine you, or maybe even dismiss it (unlikely though, since you already have 3 violations).
if you DON'T get insurance before the court date, i'd be surprised if they didn't suspend your license. also, you would be an inconsiderate clod. it seems like bullshit until someone driving without insurance rear-ends you and totals your car. just sayin

You need insurance...to drive?

I did. It was a mistake on behalf of my insurance company, but my car had to get towed and I got a 100 buck citation for "unregistered operation of a motor vehicle on a public way." If you get cited for the more severe charge, you can lose your license and/or go to jail though.

yes but why would 3 previous speeding tickets cause me to loose my license when the third is what made them find out I have no insurance or at least out dated insurance. he let me drive home still.

No, because I'm not a deadbeat and I know how to pay my bills on time.

what state was this in? if its MA then its also driving an unregistered vehicle, as you cannot have a registration without insurance. i've been caught twice, and both times i was let off because i was right down the street from my house and i told them i just bought the car and was trying to get it home.

i got my license suspended for 6 months over the same offense. And that was BEFORE my colorful police record existed.

why the hell did they suspend your license for one charge? what state? and why 6 months? what the hell did you do to deserve that?

This thread is copsist.

ma, and what i did to deserve that was driving without insurance. There's a huge grey area on most charges that they can either let you off on, or fucking throw the book at you. Depends if you're a respectable looking kid... or you have a bunch of metal in your face, and a mohawk on your head... uhh

NO! YOU!

did you have previous charges or something. it seems brutal to just suspend a license for missing out on some insurance payments. Insurance is the ultimate scam. The government took a private enterprise and made it mandatory...

when almost noone had insurance it was dirt cheep, even though the statistics for accidents hasn't changed much. Now everyone has insurance yet its based on credit history and is sky high with still the same amount of accidents. Makes no sense. It will never change...

seems insurance has actually led to shittier driving. there is no accountability.

I'm confused, are you accusing me of lying about this? Or are you just asking about previous charges because you didn't read my earlier post?

insurance, another reason why I plan on moving to NH.
