It is an offence to operate a motor vehicle on a road or any other public space in the UK if you as the driver are not insured by at least third party insurance. Many people are also not aware that it is an offence for anyone to allow or even cause another person to use a vehicle without valid insurance. These offences can attract a penalty of a £300 fine and the endorsement of 6 penalty points on your licence, with the most serious cases involving a court imposing a much larger fine and/or a disqualification from driving.

Given its complex nature, it is possible for people to go wrong with their car insurance provisions. Fortunately for motorists in Chelmsford, Caddick Davies Solicitors is here to assist.

How Do I Defend a Driving Without Insurance Charge?

Driving with No Insurance is considered a “strict liability” offence meaning you’ll be classed as committing an offence irrespective any intention to do so. Defences to driving without insurance in the UK are restricted to:

Valid Insurance: here you prove that you were in possession of a valid insurance policy; or

Employees’ Defence: Utilise this to show that the vehicle you were driving did not belong to you in the course of your employment and you were unaware that you were not insured.

While strict limitations to the number of defences to driving without insurance exist, the court may be persuaded not to endorse penalty points on your licence on “special reasons” grounds. These are cases where you possess a “genuine and honest” belief that you were covered by an insurance policy, which we can advise on in more detail.
