    In many states, you actually need (liability) insurance to purchase a car. And you can’t get car insurance without a license.

    No you don’t. That’s a requirement for vehicles that will be operated on the road.

    There is no requirement anywhere in the nation for liability insurance on a vehicle that will be operated solely on private property.

    There is no requirement for liability insurance on a tractor, a ride on lawnmower, a dune buggy, a dirt bike, a demolition derby car, or similar unregistered “vehicles”.

    That is simply false.

    As for your grandmother: a “charge” is merely a question for the courts to answer. “Did this woman break the law for driving her daughter to the hospital?”

    If ever forced to use a firearm against another person, any reasonable person would expect a similar question to be asked, and the courts to supply the answer. “Charges” are nothing a reasonable, responsible person need fear.
