Locations of uninsured drivers revealed…

A new survey carried out recently shows the locations of the highest percentage of uninsured drivers. These are the locations where the highest number of drivers have an IN10 on their license, this is the conviction code for driving without motor insurance. The town with the highest percentage was Sanquhar, Dumfriesshire which was around 28% of drivers had the IN10 conviction code. Coming in a close second with 24% was HebdenBridge, West Yorkshire. Out of the top 10, the last on the list was Notting Hill in London at 12%. Its good to see that no Kent towns made it to the top 10. If any driver is caught driving without motor insurance, there is a chance of a £200 fine and 6 points on your license, in worse cases, it could mean the car will get impounded and then a £150 collection fee.

Some drivers hide convictions for cheap insurance

Research carried out recently has shown that the public believe most accidents are caused by the use of a mobile phone at the wheel. Also it has been revealed that a lot of motorists will hide their convictions of using a mobile phone when driving or even speeding tickets. They will not tell the relevant insurance company of this therefore making their insurance cheaper. The research shows that the public who are being honested with their status are having to pay more for their insurance compared to others getting away with it.

Time will tell whether the government will crack down on either the convictions or the implications of being caught.
