If you have automatic payments set up, it is common to forget if you still have insurance. Luckily, to find out if your car is still insured, all you will need is:
  • Your driver’s license number
  • Your vehicle identification number (VIN)
  • Your license plate number
Once you have this information, contact your DMV or Office of the Secretary of State. Explain your predicament, provide the information above, and ask if they can locate your policy in their records.
If you find out you’re not covered, then it’s crucial to buy insurance as soon as possible.
The easiest and most time-efficient way to do so is through the
