Only for the law biding
Illegal aliens get DLs in AZ and drive around w/o insurance all the time
Then a gain so do alot of US Citizens
Like I said...only the law biding do
Insurance is required to drive in US....so would imagine folks crossing either border (North/South) would need Insurance
In AZ a vehicle can not be licensed / plated without Insurance. If the Insurance expires the state will send a notice demanding proof of insurance or the plates will be pulled all within a month.
An AZ Highway Patrol Officer told me that tickets are not always followed up and paid so the Mexican vehicle will not be let back into USA at the border. If a Mexican vehicle is impounded, he said a different person than who was driving the vehicle will show up as the owner and demand their vehicle back and most often gets it.
BUT this is not a common problem but the exception! The biggest problem is not wearing a seat belt and not use to the high speed limit, there are regular single Mexican vehicle accidents on I19 with someone or multi-persons thrown from the vehicle and dying.
Because of all this and more, I carry Uninsured and Under-Insurance riders on all my policies.
