Tough auto insurance requirements in Oregon have one purpose: To protect the public. As a pedestrian or a passenger, you can be injured by the negligence of a driver or some act of nature. If the driver has car insurance, the injured parties are more likely to have their medical bills covered. Failure to carry insurance puts the you and the rest of the public in danger of not getting needed medical attention or not having the medical bills be covered afterward. This potential loss for the public is considered serious enough that the uninsured driver will be taken off the highway by having his driving privileges suspended.
