No Insurance

The second reason you need insurance is in the off chance that you get involved in a wreck that happens to be your fault. Utah law requires that you maintain at least $25,000 of liability insurance and a $3000 PIP policy. This protects you from having to pay for minor collisions out of your own pocket. It also gives you built-in health insurance to cover that ER bill of up to $3000. Now if you have any experience with car wrecks or visits to the ER, you will quickly understand that $25,000 of damages and a $3000 medical bill is not very much coverage. These amounts are the minimums required by law. If you only have the minimum coverage, make sure you don't wreck into a Tesla, Mercedes, BMW, Audi, etc. If you do, it's going to be a very bad day/year for you.

So to avoid the unpleasantries, make sure you are insured. By the way, don't be stupid like I was in college. I didn't have very much money, so I would often pay my insurance guy a few days to a week late. Do you know what happens if you have an accident and "the check is in the mail?" Well, I will tell you, the insurance company will simply return the check and deny coverage. The lesson here is to get insurance and make sure you make your insurance payments on time.
