You are responsible for the repair to the car you hit. Figure a modest $5 to $6k unless you hit a new car where even the wheels may cost $1 each. Eventually they will sue you for the bill and your check will be garnished. Now it is up to 50% less (net).

Try to find someone to car pool with. Check with an insurance agent about liability insurance only and ask about monthly payments and ways to lower your insurance premiums "like attending a defensive driver courses". If you are that destitute look into getting government assistance. If you are not receiving child support and should be, get it. If you are getting it try to have it increased. You really do need insurance. If you have an accident a ticket will be the least of your worries...Good Luck...

Sorry to hear about your situation but driving without insurance is a terrible idea. If you cant afford the annual premium... then you DEFININTELY cant afford to pay all of the legal fees if you get pulled over or even worse... get into an accident.
If you get into an accident and you have no insurance, you will be responsible for all the damages and injuries. If you cant afford them, the court can garnish your wages. and you will be screwed.
Get minimum insurance for your car. If you have a pretty nice car, sell it for a cheaper one and use the money to pay for insurance.
Otherwise, carpool with a co-worker or take the bus. Who cares if you get to work an hour early or have to walk a mile to get to work... its much better than rolling the dice and driving without insurance.
