Has anyone got any firm info or detail's of this new ruling on every car owned having to have insurance?
Heard some stuff about it and guessiing there is more to it than i have heard. Could seriously affect some of us and also projects.
Hoping someone like ace will be allong soon with some firm details of how our fun is possibly about to get ruined some more.
Don't want to scaremonger just get the facts out in the open.

I believe every car that is TAXED has to be insured...
Just means a lot of cars going to be sold with be sold without tax... also means prices might drop a little.

the way I heard it was if the car is on sorn you don't need insurance but I could be wrong they're supposed to be sending letters to everyone to explain it. Can't see how it will stop people driving with no insurance and will probs be the first step towards us having to insure cars in bits while there being rebuilt

I cant see that its going to make a blind bit of difference TBH. Whats to stop someone declaring a car sorn, and using it? Theyll be taking a chance, but as things stand surely Automatic Recignition Technology should be enough to catch any car not up to scratch. If it doesnt work now then what will? Its just going to make it a pain in the backside if you take a car off the road for a month when the insurance runs out while its still taxed to do some work on it, for example. In which case, theyll be more wasted paperwork taking up time and money that would be better spent doing things properly.
And a £100 fine. What sort of deterant is that FFS!

its a tax not a fine, if it was a deterant to the hardcore that don't see why they should tax/test/insure it would be higher but at £100 joe honest public will pay rather than fight/complain when hes caught out.
