Most people can't afford a cash bond, so they have to buy insurance.

The problem with a cash bond, is if you can do that you must have other assets. You may never be responsible for an accident, but if you're in one, all the other driver's lawyer has to do is convince the jury you're at fault. Then they can go after your other assets. Usually when you have insurance, the other side just sues for the maximum of the insurance.
