Driving without auto insurance is, at least in my state, a misdemeanor.
In other words, it's not a "traffic violation and ticket" issue, it's a criminal law issue.
Your state might be different but since you did not mention where you're located, you'd want to provide that information also if you're quite concerned about this issue.
You can get a permanent criminal record for being caught doing this.
That makes it significantly more serious of an issue than speeding, running a red light, or even causing an accident.
You can certainly be fined for driving without insurance. You can definitely count on a stiff fine if convicted of this.
As of June, every state requires insurance.
