P.S.A. from Madison County Clerk on auto insurance timing

Madison County Clerk Mike Kevil recorded a public-service announcement advising drivers to wait about a month after registering a new vehicle before changing auto insurance providers. He said switching insurers immediately after registration can trigger a notification to the original insurer, which may respond that the driver no longer has coverage and prompt a letter that vehicle plates could be suspended. Kevil recommended contacting the new insurer if issues arise and urged listeners to share the guidance with family and friends.
