"No Proof Of Insurance" -Help-!!!!

What is the name of your state? FL, Pasco County

I just recently bought my 1997 Chevy Cavalier from my brother in law in Nov or so.... and I didn't get it registered yet and didn't have any insurance on it. I wanted to finish hooking it up (engine, exterior, etc.) before spending the money to insure it and re-register it. I took it to work one day just to show it off and on the way home from work my cousin wanted to race me down a long stretch of road that isn't traveled often. I raced him but the roads were a bit slick and when I hit the bend my car spun out and went into the woods.... breaking the windshield and causing the State Trooper to come out. I got my car towed and picked it up the next day but of course I didn't have any insurance and it wasn't registered under my name yet... and the tag was still in my brother's name. I'm not sure if he had insurance on it at the time either... and I doubt he did.
My question is... on the "Notice of Arraignment" that I recieved it states: "[If you]...had valid insurance or proof that you are not the registered owner of the vehicle, you may bring a copy of the owner's registration or an insurance card or binder to the traffic violations bureau, prior to your hearing and pay a $5 dismissal fee and a $16 delinquency fee."
One... I am on probation, this is a civil infraction... does this violate me?
Two... if I proved he was the registered owner of the vehicle at the time of the accident do I just pay the fines and its over? Or does it fall on him?
Please help me out.... [email]deca_club@hotmail.com[/email]

Answer one: What are you on probation for? It may be pertitent to if you are violated or not.

Answer two: try it and your brother-in-law will install you in the dashboard. I would if you tried some chicken**** like that.

That's why I wouldn't do something like #2 unless it just ended with me pay the fines. If that's the case, I'll do #2.... if not, then I'll face what I face. The part about me being on probation and what for... it has nothing to do with the traffic world, and therefor has nothing to do with this.

Well, since you already know the answer to number one you don't need an answer from me.

Correct, but I am not sure if it violates me or not. And not to be rude hexeliebe but if you don't know (Fact... not a... maybe answer) Please do not reply to this forum. It is ment to get advice, not wise remarks. Thanks.

Hey, jerkoff, the only smart remark made in this post was this comment you made...

The part about me being on probation and what for... it has nothing to do with the traffic world, and therefor has nothing to do with this

Well now, since you're the expert tell me what's wrong with that statement.

If you can.

You want qoutes... "Answer two: try it and your brother-in-law will install you in the dashboard. I would if you tried some chicken**** like that."
That was a wise ass remark. It would only take a rocket scientist to figure out that #2 wouldn't be something to do if it screws your own brother. Again DO NOT REPLY with non related topics or smart ass comments or I will get you removed from this forum as you tend not to be of any help to the "Advice" world... End it now.

Well bubba, get me removed....PLEASE!!!!

Looks like your BROTHER-in-law is going to have some explaining to do.

HIS license might be suspended for allowing you to take the car without having
insurance on it.

I hope your brother-in-law is not a violent type, or i would expect him to bust your
jaw!

UDF, the type of violation you are on probation for could very well be pertinent. What is it? Misdemeanor of something? Felony? How long have you been on probation for?

BTW, it was very stupid to race with no insurance on slick roads.
