Yup, you read correctly -- no written tests for licenses from most states, but not all.

I found insurance to be a little more expensive here than it was in the Bay Area (SF), which is pretty pricey -- mainly because of PIP. It is off the books until January and then I understand PIP will be required again, so you might get insurance cheaper until you have to renew.

After doing some shopping, I went with GEICO down here. Good coverage, good rates (cheaper than Progressive which is what I had in California).
