You can't get a registration without an insurance stamp and most insurance companies require a substantial down payment. I guess you could lapse in payment and by the time it was reported to the registry you could have an accident.
Once the DMV knows you no longer have insurance, when your insurance company notifies them, then your registration becomes invalid.
Now I'm sure there are people driving with no insurance and an invalid registration until they get caught!

Surprise, surprise ..... while this is the situation in Massachusetts and many other states, it is NOT the situation in N.H. Here in N.H. one will pay the clerk at local town hall for car registration, walk out the door of town hall with registration and new license plates and whether or not you have car inspected and insured is totally up to you as you walk back to your car.

Cars, car repairs, tires, brakes, gasoline ..... is all VERY expensive. Without the annual N.H. state safety inspection, initiated in N.H. in 1931, there will be an increase in cars driving on the N.H. roads with bad tires and bad brakes and burnt out lights and other safety items like windshield wiper blades and big rust and cracked windshield.

I betcha this bill, HB-649, gets NAYED in the N.H. State Senate which has 24-members.

Nay is an olde expression of negation used in legislative votes and means NO.
