How do I get a fake car insurance card?
I'm strapped for cash at the moment, and have been struggling with my car insurance payments. Any idea how to get a fake car insurance card?

We understand that times are tough and people are looking for ways to save, but it is never a good idea to get a fake insurance card.
Here’s why:
- It’s insurance fraud: Yes, using a fake insurance card is a crime. If you’re caught using one, you could face hefty fines or even jail time.
- It will get you in trouble with the DMV: Insurance companies are responsible for alerting the DMV when a driver’s insurance lapses. That means, they will eventually find out that you are driving uninsured. Aninsurance lapsecan make your insurance premiums skyrocket because it makes you a higher-risk driver in the eyes of your insurance company.
- You won’t be insured when you need it: If you’re in an accident, your fraudulent insurance card isn’t going to do you any good—in fact, it will likely get you a big fine in addition to the accident expenses that you will be accountable for paying out of pocket.
Instead of getting a fake insurance card, make sure you’re paying the lowest price for the best coverage by downloading the car insurance broker app
