Driving without insurance in St. Paul Minnesota or in any place in MN is a misdemeanor. If this infraction occurs twice within 10 years it is considered a gross misdemeanor. The penalty can be a fine of not less than $200 but not more than the maximum fine applicable to misdemeanors and a sentence for imprisonment. In addition to the fine an individual convicted of this might also have their driver’s license suspended or revoked.

The Minnesota statutes states that a driver may produce proof of insurance no later than the time and date specified on the citation for their first court appearance. You will still have to pay the fine and provide proof of insurance at the time of your court date. For more information regarding your case contact the Department of Motor Vehicles in your area.
