Can you be arrested for no car insurance in the State of Michigan?

Yes you can, Depending on where you live in Michigan. I recently got arrested a few days ago and car impounded because I didnt have car insurance. The police officer wanted to search my car so i told him no, he tried to do everything in his power to search that car, so he searched for something wrong, found out my insurance expired a month ago, then told me that I would be put in jail if I didnt let him search my car. I denied and they put me in jail over night. When I got out the next day, I went to the impound yard and by the looks of it they searched my car anyways because It was trashed and some stuff on my car was broked (cup holders,middle console,doors etc. So yeah, just be careful. In the long run, getting insurance and making sure you have it while your on the road is very important. I cannot stress that enough..
