I can't believe the 26 that don't. You will be screwed reallybad one day. I know you've heard the line 'what if you hit a mercedes' but think it will never happen to you. I've seen it happen that often where people are in serious debt and their lives turn to SH1T because they couldn't afford TFT (third Party Fire Theft) insurance.

On my cheapest car I still had TFT, even if insurance is $300 and the car is worth $1500, it is better than owing $100,000!
Insurance also gives you $1,000,000 for liability. That's if you cause damage indirectly. If you are uninsured you don't have this either. Don't think of the car you hit, think of the damage it causes, especially to business. $1,000,000 is easy to add up too!
Very easily. Wet road, too much throttle and take out a powerpole. Theres a huge cost right there. Now add a transformer to that pole... mega bucks. Now add that pole falling on a house. Debt for life!
