The consequences for driving without insurance can differ depending on what state your brother resides in and got ticketed in. The penalties can be anything from a hefty fine, driver license suspension or revocation, vehicle tags can be seized and the car can be impounded. In some states community service or jail time could be ordered.

Many states require the driver to prove they have specific insurance for a certain time period under a financial responsibility law such as SR22. Other states will require your brother to pay a driver responsibility fee to the state for a certain time period.

To find out what your brother's penalty could be you can contact the number on the citation. If you need more information it would probably be helpful to speak to someone at your local department of motor vehicles. Make sure your brother gets auto insurance as soon as possible and no longer drives without it.
