If this is your first vehicle, yes, you will have to purchase car insurance before you drive your new automobile in Anaheim, CA off the dealer’s lot. If you are financing the purchase, the lien holder will require that you purchase an insurance policy with collision and comprehensive coverage.

If you already have a car insurance policy, and you are replacing a car generally it will cover your new vehicle for a few days (regulated by each individual state and/or company). Once that period is over, check with your insurance carrier to confirm that the new automobile has been added to your car insurance policy.
