Paul I agree but in the US I think that would only apply if you also had
"antique auto" insurance as opposed to the traditional insurance.  Of course
each state has it's own rules too!

Safety Fast!!

I don't know how insurance in the US operates but in the UK the time to
worry would
be if you had a prang while on a 'non-event' trip - your insurance would be
invalidated and you would be personally liable not only for the damage to
your own
car but also for settling all third-party claims.  In a litigeous nation
like the
USA that doesn't bear thinking about.
