No. However, the state of New York requires a vehicle to carry certain auto insurance coverage before it can be registered and license plates be issued. Insurers are required to report the status of all policies as a way to track down uninsured vehicles. Penalties for having an uninsured vehicle can include the suspension of your vehicle registration or drivers license.
