The DMV will suspend your "driving privilege" so that when you get caught driving next time your charge will be more serious than just driving with no license. Since your license is already suspended the suspension will get longer and longer with each subsequent violation. Eventually they will put you away for a long time and it will get worse each time until you learn to obey the law or get permanent accommodations in a state prisons with all those others there who never learned to obey the law. Consider also that if you are the victim of an accident and receive serious injuries while driving with no insurance, such as being left in a wheelchair, you will be penalized and not be entitled to any pain and suffering damages even if the person who injures you is responsible person with a license and insurance. Driving with a suspended license and no insurance is bad for you and everyone else sharing the road with you...
