Petition Raise the Penalty for Uninsured Motorists
Currently the penalty for driving a motor vehicle with no insurance is £300 and 6 points on your license. With this being the case, millions of motorists take the gamble!
More details
If you are involved in a road traffic accident that was not a fault of your own, usually the third party’s insurance would cover the damage to your vehicle and your insurance excess. If however, the third party is an uninsured driver, this then falls on you to recover your costs.
Millions of motorists are uninsured because the penalty for doing so is not severe enough. A £300 fine is cheaper than most annual insurance quotes!
The fine should be more severe to prevent this from happening.
