When you drive a car in Georgia, it is your duty as a driver to determine insurance coverage before you drive. So how could you be set up? If you drove without insurance, you breached your duty to check.

At this point, get a very good lawyer. You can go to jail, get a large fine, and also lose your right to drive for a year.

From now on, never drive someone else's car unless you are sure YOUR insurance covers you in that car, or unless you verify theirs does.

I'm not sure what "it" is. Assuming "it" is drugs, I highly recommend that you hire a Georgia criminal defense attorney to represent you.

Best of luck.******The above is for informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client relationship.******
