What if you get pulled over and can't show proof of insurance because your phone battery is dead?
What if the cop drops your phone walking back to their car to take down your information?
What if the cop creeps through your messages while he has your phone?
Personally, I'd rather just have a piece of paper ready.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoYou should not even have to show proof of insurance. There should be a database the cop’s license plate scanner can look into and show the cop everything they need to know. I assume there already is, and the paper requirements are just something for people to trip over and trigger other suspicions. The cop actually does not even need to know about insurance at all. The state charges everyone a yearly tax anyway (“vehicle registration”), they could easily just not let people renew this registration if they don’t have insurance.
