on car insurance you would be prosecuted for driving without insurance, this would mean a court appearance. it is possible you can be disqualified from driving for a period, there is usually a 6 - 8 point penalty and a fine up to £5000.
this is for UK drivers

If your car insurance runs out, the insurance company contacts DMV. DMV, in most circumstances, sends out a letter requesting proof of insurance. They give you a form for either you or your insurance agent to fill out. If you have a lapse in coverage, even if it is just one day, you can lose your license until you pay a fine, which leads to you getting points against your driving record. The fine used to be $500, but I'm not sure how much it is now. At least that's how it is in Virginia.
If you are talking about health insurance, if you have a lapse in coverage any doctor visits or medical procedures will not be covered during that time frame. Even if you get your insurance reinstated, there is often a waiting period before it goes back into effect. There are no fines for letting health insurance lapse that I know of.

You will recieve a fine, Penalty points on your license, possibly a driving ban and also most insurers won't insure you ever, including house insurance, travel, life insurance etc...
Also if you have an accident, other people lose out including me because of your stupidity not to get insurance, mine increases to cover the costs of those that can't be bothered.
If I were you, i'd park the car off the road, and begin getting the bus until you get the cover note.

If you drove without insurance then I HATE people like you cause I had an accident with an uninsured driver 4 yrs ago and it wasn't my fault (Ins admitted it) and I had to pay out £400 excess - dam you fuckers.
You will get a IN10 on your licence, a fine and possible ban
Which now means your premium has increased if you try and get insurance again - so it should be.

Depends on what happens.
If you are caught without then you get a fine and points.
If you crash you will get that plus a ban and have to pay for both vehicles repair
If you crash and someone is hurt or killed you will get all the above plus you will be responsible for paying compensation which could see you bankrupt. You might also face a spell in prison
