Do you need auto insurance when you have a learner's permit?

Answer from a General Agent

Yes, you do. A Drivers "Permit" is permission to drive and therefore a temporary license with certain restrictions. You can obtain your own insurance or you can be covered under someone elses policy but you must have coverage. A Drivers Permit comes with all the responsibilities of anyone who operates a motor vehicle on public roads, including your financial responsibility.
