Do you think having a law is enough in a country that big? Its probably cheaper to bribe your way out after being caught than to pay the premium.

Or lie. My friend was rear ended recently. When the officer came he took both their statements and checked their insurance. She finds out after the crash the guy that rear ended her had let his car insurance lapse and lied to the officer about the validity of his coverage. Apparently the liar is also a law student at the local university.

This happened in the US and luckily my friend spent the money for uninsured motorist coverage on her policy.
