How The Connecticut Ins Requirement Brochure Helps Motorists

Everything that is required of auto owners can be found in the Connecticut ins requirement brochure.

Connecticut requires that all auto registered vehicles be insured. This process is strictly enforced as all insurance companies must report to the state any policies that have cancelled. The cancelled policies are then matched with the registered vehicles and the reports are sent to the Department of Motor Vehicle so that citation action can be put into effect.

In the insurance requirement brochure all the details about what penalties are incurred are stated. The state requires that you turn in your plates or insure your vehicle. And if you think you slide under the radar without insurance there is a system that reports lapsed policies to the department of motor vehicle. So the penalty for the uninsured motorist is a two hundred dollar fine, and fifty dollars if the plate have been confiscated by law enforcement.

If you drive a seasonal vehicle you can reduce your coverage with your insurance company and the state will not penalize you. You do not have to turn in your marker plates if you just use the convertible for the summer and store it in the winter. But if you no longer are operating the vehicle, the state requires that the plates be turned into the DMV and then request that they be put on hold until you make plans for a new vehicle. You can cancel the insurance and are also entitled to refund from your annual registration fee.

The brochure also advises motorists on how to handle their registration and marker plates when they move out of the state or what to do when you move to Connecticut from another state. The brochure also advises on what to do when marker plates are lost or stolen and what to do when the registered motorist dies.
