I used to live in WI and I did have car insurance. Most people did.
Yes, it is a fairly common sense thing to do if one doesn't have a cash pool significantly larger than standard liability coverage, I was merely pointing out it wasn't mandatory.
There was an additional option when you got insurance to insure you against accidents with people who were uninsured or under-insured. Basically, the insurance company will pay the bills no matter what and sue the un-insured idiot that ran into you if they can.
That's not unique to Wisconsin
I believe it is the norm even.
