Mesquite has just become the third Dallas suburb to begin towing cars stopped for a traffic violation or involved in a collision, if the driver cannot provide proof of insurance. Last year police in Mesquite issued 10,000 tickets for failure to maintain liability insurance.
What a boon it would be both to society as a whole and to our law practice if everyone really did carry insurance. We wouldn’t have to reject case after case because the defendant had no insurance and the plaintiff had no uninsured motorist coverage.
