An estimated 12% of Louisiana drivers don’t have auto insurance, putting the state slightly below the national average for motorists without coverage. According to the Insurance Research Council, 13.8% of U.S. drivers didn’t have insurance in 2007. That’s better than the 14.9% driving without coverage in 2003. New Mexico had the highest percentage of uninsured drivers, at 29%, while 1% of Massachusetts drivers lacked insurance. The IRC expects the number of uninsured drivers will increase to 16% in 2010, because of the national economic slowdown.
