Is driving without insurance a moving violation?
My friend has been driving without insurance for a little over a month now, and I’m pretty sure she could get in trouble for this! Is driving without insurance considered a moving violation?

A moving violation is a breach of the law committed by the driver of a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion. A driver who fails to show proof of insurance while operating a vehicle is guilty of a moving violation.
