CORPUS CHRISTI -- Corpus Christi police say it's a crime that goes unpunished all too often: driving without insurance.
And the numbers are staggering: 25 percent of drivers in Nueces County are not insured. Over 4,000 citations have been issued in the last 6 months. 1,000 plus accidents in 2009 involved a driver with no insurance.
"Beginning January 1, if you do not have insurance, we're going to tow the vehicle," said CCPD Chief Troy Riggs.
