I applied for car insurance but still haven't received a reply. Does my application entitle me to drive until I get confirmation from the insurance company?

Hi there,

In order to register a car and obtain license plates, you must provide the traffic office with proof of insurance. For this reason, you cannot even drive a car on public roads without first having obtained proof of insurance from an insurance provider.
