I just bought a used car here in Alaska but I haven’t registered it yet. I am thinking not to get insurance anymore since it is a used car, can I do that?

There is a lot of coverage available in a regular car insurance policy. Normally, there would be differences when it comes to the types and costs of coverage you choose. But all of the states have sensibly passed insurance laws which mandate all motorists to have at least the minimum level of car insurance. A lot of states even mandate that you show proof of insurance before registering a vehicle. So no matter what the value of your car is, new or used, you need to have insurance for it because it is a requirement.
You should have at least the minimum insurance required in the state of Alaska and that is the auto liability insurance coverage. This will give coverage from liability claims against you in case you were found at-fault in an accident and this resulted in bodily injuries to other individuals and/or property damage. All states have required minimum amount of coverage for the liability insurance. The underlying principle of having laws about the auto liability insurance is that those drivers who caused accidents must be able to provide compensations for those people affected who had losses because of these accidents.
