I didn’t think New Hampshire needed proof of insurance in order to register a vehicle so how could I get convicted for driving without proof of insurance?
You are right, to a point. Unless you subject your license/operating privileges to scrutiny by virtue of securing convictions, you do not need to file proof of insurance. If you fall under an insurance filing requirement, the Division of Motor Vehicles will alert you to this in writing. Individuals convicted of driving while intoxicated (DWI) are mandated to file proof of insurance for a minimum of three (3) years from date of conviction for a first offense and five (5) years for a second offense. If someone is being decertified as an habitual offender, before license/operating privileges can be restored, that person must file proof of insurance for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of his/her habitual offender decertification hearing. Individuals who appear at administrative hearings can be mandated to file insurance as a condition of retaining a license, or if the license is suspended, as a condition of restoration.
