Do I need auto insurance to apply for a MS drivers license? Mississippi

New Driver Checklist

Auto Insurance and Your MS Drivers License

No, you do not need to have car insurance when you get a driver license. However, any car you drive must be insured.

You will have to show proof of car insurance when you:

  • Take the driving test. The DPS examiner does not want to ride in an uninsured car.
  • Register your vehicle.

Getting Insurance Quotes

You’ll need to contact a few insurance agents licensed to sell MS insurance. Get several different insurance quotes, to compare insurance rates.

Mississippi requires these minimums for insurance:

  • $25,000 per person per single accident.
  • $50,000 per accident for bodily injury.
  • $25,000 per accident for property damage.
However, if you own assets, like a newer car, or a home, you will probably want to get more insurance than this to cover yourself in the event of a lawsuit.
