14-213b insufficient insurance carries which penalty?

• A. Infraction
• B. $117
• C. Misdemeanor
• D. Summons

Answer: (D)

When a driver is found with insufficient auto insurance, the usual consequence is a summons to appear in court rather than an immediate monetary fine. This approach lets the court review the situation, require proof of coverage or payment of penalties, and determine any further action to restore proper insurance. An infraction is a simple civil violation typically paid as a fine without appearing in court, a misdemeanor is a more serious criminal charge, and a specific dollar amount is just a potential fine rather than the formal action to compel court appearance. So the procedure used is to issue a summons.
