In which scenario would you NOT need to have insurance on your vehicle according to Indiana law?

In Indiana, having insurance on your vehicle is a legal requirement for activities such as getting license plates and registering your vehicle with the state. These actions are directly tied to the operation of the vehicle on public roads, and state law mandates that vehicles must have proof of insurance coverage to protect against liability in the event of an accident.

However, when using your vehicle seasonally for agricultural purposes, it may fall under certain exemptions due to the nature of its use. Agrarian activities can sometimes be conducted under different regulations, especially if the vehicle is not utilized on public highways or is strictly used on private property for variable farming-related tasks. Therefore, for vehicles designated and clearly limited for seasonal agricultural purposes, Indiana law may not require conventional insurance in the same way it does for vehicles used regularly on public roadways.

Driving to a dealership to trade in a vehicle is also a scenario that typically requires insurance, as it involves the vehicle being operated on public roads. Thus, the answers that relate to typical operations and registrations require insurance to comply with safety and liability laws in Indiana.
