two questions about the automobile issue. first, ice, how does removing the vin number from the system help your situation because they are still looking for registration when they pull you over. second, insurance, i read where insurance is " a policy of insurance is a maritime contract, and therefore admiralty jurisdiction" De Lovio v. Boit, 7 Fed. Cases Number 3, 776& The author who pointed this case law out says thats proof that insurance (gambling) isnt mandatory. How is that so? can someone please clarify. i know that if you are not envolved in commerce then you are not a driver and dont have a motor vehicle according to the code , but how does insurance fit in there?
