Even the minimum insurance in the cheapest state is probably more than
you could squeeze out of the average American in court.
You can bankrupt them but then you are done. In homestead states you
can't even go after homes or pensions.

What is wrong is if someone with lots of assets causes an accident
here in
California he could lose a couple million in court. While if the same
thing happened to him and the causer had no or minimum insurance,
that is
all you could get.

That is what I said. Insurance is to protect rich people. Someone with
limited resources won't attract the attention of a tort lawyer. There
is no money in suing an illegal alien with 6 kids and a 20 year old
Chevy

So, make it so you can only sue for the amount of insurance you,
yourself,
carry. Who **** off those tort ambulance chasers.


I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure that's how it works here in CT.


They call it "no fault".. If you let your insurance run out, they notify
Motor Vehicle, and I believe your local cops that your insurance is
expired, so your registration is void...


Seems as if you can also sue in Connecticut.

I see on the first link, that minimum insurance is $10k per person killed
or injured up to $40,000 total for an accident and $10,000 in property
damage. That PD will not even cover most car damage, let alone
replacement. And if you have assets, the tort attorney is going to go
after them. And Google Connecticut accident lawsuit and you get lots of
attorneys.


Yeah, and then like the scumbags I am evicting, you sue them and they go
to court, you come out with 50 bucks a week, for life....and you have to
keep chasing them for that...
