insurance companies don't report to lein holders.
they don't know you are driving without insurance.

If the lienholder is (was) listed on the policy then the lienholder knows it was cancelled. It just takes a little time for them to process everything through their system. If you haven't yet you will likely get a letter at some point in time stating that your lienholder has covered your vehicle (not you, just the car) with their own insurance and will be sending you a nice fat bill.

Yeah, just wait till you get a payment request for the remaining balance. That'll be cute.

If there is a lienholder on your car, you're required to have the amount of insurance coverage that they stipulate, usually full coverage. If your insurance does not meet their requirements: big fat bill. Better get on that. Besides that, if you're driving without insurance and you get into an accident 1. You're going to run. (in which case I hope you die a slow, painful death) or 2. You're going to get sued. or 3. Both! Don't be stupid, pick up your insurance so you don't get yourself ****ed in the ***.

The lienholder is whoever financed the car. Be it Mitsubishi Motor Credit or an independent bank. They have a lien on the car, meaning they essentially "own" it until you finish buying it from them.

For example, my leinholder would be Charter One Auto Finance. Not - but it all depends on the financing you got.

For christ sakes, just get Safe Auto, OK? They keep you legal for less!
