Do I need health / travel insurance?

I've just been issued a temporary work visa (1 year) so I can start my job while the residency application is still being processed (hopefully that will be approved soon too!).

do i need car insurance?

well basically i cracked my sideview mirror and the plastic holding it is a little lifted from normal place.. if i went to an auto shop to fix it, would i need car insurance or could i just get it done and pay with cash?
