What if the person paid cash for their car, doesn't carry what we call 'comp and collision', and therefore won't be making a claim to their insurance company. Why is it any of the government's business? If the answer is to aid the other person's insurance company (if you are not at fault), that is a real eye roller IMO.

Is full coverage insurance (comprehensive, collision, and liability) mandatory in Germany? If so, is it mandatory no matter the age of the car?
