Can you legally buy a car from a dealership without getting insurance first?

If you already have car insurance, it is quite possible that the newly purchased vehicle would be covered by the same limits of liability and other coverages afforded by your existing policy. Of course, there is only a number of days before you'd have to add that vehicle to your policy, but the rationale is that some people will buy a car on Friday night, let's say, and, if it's a long weekend, there might be no way to contact ones insurance agent. So there is often a 4 day window where coverage is assumed.
