Did they require you to purchase insurance for a full year all at once?When I lived in Ks, they had the no-fault insurance. In an accident, your insurance paid for your vehicle no matter who was at fault.
If you didn't pay your premium, they had Kansas Highway Patrol agents look for your vehicle and remove the plate when found. Special unit.
I don't have a clue about how it works there now, but it was very effective at that time. Folks would hide their vehicles, etc, but they would eventually get them.
That was the point of my post.
Whether some like it or not, there are those of us that cannot afford to pay that much at once and it would probably make things worse instead of fixing the issue of people cancelling their insurance after they get their tag.
I'm not saying it is okay to drive without insurance, but there is no reason to put an extra financial burden on the poor by requiring a years worth of insurance be paid all at once.
