Caught with no insurance
Is this a road traffic offence or a criminal offence, just to settle an argument

Its an RTA I know because it happened to me! its affectionally known as an IN10 and sticks on your licence for 5 years. Modyfying your insurance docs
would be a criminal offence
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

But gets you a criminal record if dealt with at a Magistrates' Court and stays on the Court register for life.

If you are done for no insurance, as stated earlier, it goes on your license and then makes getting insurance more expensive.
So.... If you were done for having no insurance, then you get insured, you cant possibly be done for having no insurance till the start of your new
premium, yet you are charged more because you are at risk for having no insurance????????
You know it makes sense??

But in the insurers view, the chance of you cancelling the policy and keeping the documents is higher.....

I think its also the fact they dont like you as you avoided giving them money, hence they charge you more to make up for lost time!

its a legel requirement now that if you cancel an insurance policy you must return the documents within a certain time, although they never chased me
for mine and didnt send them. I think they trying to scare people so you cannot keep hold of docs...

Should do - it also stays on PNC for life as well.
I should know - I do this type of work.

Think it depends whether you have a full or short CRB check.
