The law on motor insurance has changed. If you own a vehicle and it is registered in your name, unless it has been declared as “off the road” with a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN) with the DVLA, it must be insured at all times. It is also still illegal to drive a vehicle without appropriate insurance.

If you are not insured (or haven’t made a SORN for your vehicle), your policy record will not appear on the Motor Insurance Database (MID) and you can expect to receive a warning letter in the post, followed by a fixed penalty fine.

Check your own vehicle is correctly recorded by going to askMID.com.  Stay legal and Stay Insured.
