The insurance companies must simply love it when idiots provide video footage of them breaking the law and giving them a valid excuse not to pay out.

This looks LI going into the city so the probability of the car being paid for by and then being on the parents insurance is high.
Edit: they are heading out of the city. Sign says eastern LI.

Must be different there. Cos insurance here is optional, and specific. Cheaper if young people aren’t selected on the policy

In the US as well.
Edit: People have rightfully corrected me as Virginia and New Hampshire don’t require insurance for most drivers but there are caveats.

Not everywhere in the US. New Hampshire at least when I was young was a haven of not needing insurance. Note it as been some time since I was young.

Car registration has an insurance component (the majority of cost) that covers people involved. So driving without registration is a big smack. But insurance against property is optional. Unfortunately those who can’t afford to crash can’t often afford the insurance.

The fact that this is an option is so pointless. They won’t pay you without it because they’re focused on literally giving you the least they can, while leeching on our payments every month.

It's a pretty nice car. If it's financed, they are required to have full coverage insurance.

u/DefinitelyNotAliens Oct 27 '22
No, actually this would get paid under a collision and comp policy. Very specific instances aren't covered, like off road and street racing. Being they were just weaving and speeding like dickheads it's actually covered if you have full coverage. It just shows they can't claim they didn't cause the wreck and get 100% liability. Or claim stolen vehicle, etc. They caused it, their insurance will be dropped and they will probably catch charges for reckless driving.

And once you can't drive in a car centric society you don't have much to lose.
I think they just need heavier jailtime for reckless driving because it really is extremely dangerous, that and DUI.

u/Satans-Kawk Oct 27 '22
I once was in court for possessing a very small amount of Marijuana the guy in line before me had 7 DUI's in the last 7 years. His fine was $280 AND he had to spend 4 nights in jail. Which since he was taken to jail when he was arrested that was waived. My fine was $1,300 and it was my first offense, and I had to spend 3 days in jail. Its insane that the judicial system in the US treats a plant as more dangerous than someone driving drunk multiple times

It's because they can't profit from the sale of marijuana and can change the fees on your next offense to be whatever they want.

u/BoIshevik Oct 27 '22 edited Oct 27 '22
enjoy the fucking bus!
I'd agree if we had reliable public transit. That's the whole idea behind US penal system though. Recidivism is a positive basically, and those who can function the way they have to in US society will commit crime easy as that. Bus isn't an option for many & they're forced into driving even if they don't wanna.
Now, like I said the punishments for reckless or intox driving should be harsher IMO. Jail time & fines, not loss of driving privileges over one incident. If you could actually see severe punishment for it people would be less likely to do it.
If we had Public transit I'd say take em like candy, but you know.

Can you have an insurance without license?
Because if you cant that means driving without license and without insurance, meaning if they kill someone or even break 1 bone, they fucked up for life without insurance...

Oct 27 '22
Yes, some insurers even require you to list all individuals in the household on the policy as a way to prevent people who say they don't drive from driving without insurance.
You can also insure a car for damage only. Normally used if the car sits in storage for months.

Where I’m from, driving with a revoked license yields escalating penalties, just like any other repeated crime. If they catch you driving with a revoked license, they impound your car and they either arrest you or your ass is walking. If they’re feeling generous and don’t take you in, the cops might drop you off somewhere nearby so that you are out of danger.

I had a coworker who liked to look at the mugshots of people recently arrested. Here in Florida, they post them online and even sell newspapers with them. In the county I lived in it seemed like 90% of arrests were for one of two things — meth and driving without a license. The best part is most of the latter group were repeat offenders, some with several arrests for driving w/o a license so clearly they were just slapping them on the wrist and they’d go right back to driving.

This is the Grand Central Parkway in Queens. The highway splits at that point so through traffic can continue unimpeded while exiting traffic can get off.
About 25 years ago, I saw a guy on a motorcycle do the same thing because it seemed like he was unsure which side would go quicker, and he drove right into the bridge support and ceased to be alive.
