Best Answer

You must have it insured before you drive it. It is against the law to drive a vehicle without minimum liability coverage. All you need to do is call an insurance company, set up a policy, and have them fax a copy of the temporary pink slip to you, in order to have proof of insurance immediately. The real pink slip will come in the mail If the car is new or used and you bought it from a dealership, most dealerships require that you provide proff of insurance before they hand over the keys. However if you are financing the vehicle you may be forced to have full coverage (collision, comprehensive) based on the terms of the financing company.
