You would think common sense would prevail.

I suppose the answer is to SORN the vehicle. But still . . .

 

[Duncodin]

I did not know that insurance was necessary unless the car was on the road.

 

[t-tony]

If you don't sorn a vehicle and it is Registered to you, it has to be Insured.

Tony.

 

[Duncodin]

Yes. And I didn't know that. I thought that sorn just related to road tax.

 

[t-tony]

It was brought in at the time they started allowing you to tax each month etc.

Blimey, news to me too. I reckon there are lots of other people who don't know too.
