Which statement about proof of insurance is true?

Proof of insurance is an official record from your insurer that confirms you have active auto liability coverage and shows the key details of that coverage. An insurance card that lists the policyholder’s name, the insurer, the policy number, the coverage limits, and the effective dates is the recognized proof you can present to law enforcement, the DMV, or others when proof is required. It proves not only that you have insurance, but also the period it’s in force and the amount of coverage you have. A handwritten note from the insurer isn’t an official document and lacks verifiable details, and a phone call confirmation doesn’t provide a tangible, time-stamped record and may not be accepted in many situations. So the card showing coverage levels and dates is the valid proof.
