According to the Missouri Department of Revenue any car driver whose driver license is suspended for failing to show proof of insurance must carry liability insurance on his or her vehicle for a period of 3 years following the end of the suspension. The motorist must file this proof of insurance with the Department of Revenue during this 3-year period.

The DOR did not state the fine amount that goes with a operating a vehicle without insurance violation so it may differ according to the jurisdiction you were ticketed in. If you were ticketed for being an uninsured driver and causing an accident then you should contact the court listed on the ticket to find out what penalties, including a fine amount, which you will be facing.
