What must you do when asked for proof of insurance?

Show a copy of your driver license
Show proof of registration
Show your license plate number
Show a valid proof of liability insurance

The correct answer is: Show a valid proof of liability insurance

When asked for proof of insurance, you should show a valid proof of liability insurance. This is because liability insurance is the type of insurance that covers damages or injuries you may cause to others while operating your vehicle. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not specifically pertain to insurance and may not prove that you are insured. Showing your driver's license may prove your identity but not your insurance. Showing proof of registration proves that your vehicle is registered, but not necessarily insured. And displaying your license plate number does not prove that you have insurance. Therefore, the best option is to show a valid proof of liability insurance when asked for proof of insurance.
