 Can't really be angry mate, u deserve what you got and got off lightly. The way i always look at people driving without insurance.. say you crash and kill someone due to speeding etc..? you have no insurance.. u'll be sued for 100's of thousands and if u can't pay.. your family will!
 not worth driving without insurance.

 | Sometimes you have to re-sit an extended test, if you haven't your alright
  
 The hazard awarness test yopu just have to watch some video clips and click on the hazards, you have to get about 40 out of 75 or something like that (it's piss easy)

 | thats why our insurance premiums keep going up and road tax!
 
 Why would you drive a car without an MOT, surely if you think about it, when you got one you know the car is kinda safe, without one you could be driving a death trap.....

 | Don't think he is trying to condone what he did. It was a while ago and I am sure he has been slated enough for it. He is just asking for advice about his test.

 | does the test examiner know when you sit it that you have had a ban?  If so surely they're going to be harsh on you?

 | Nah i was selling my car to my mate and i was taking it to him.
 The insurance had been cancelled the day before so i could insure the corsa.
 Just taking the car up 2 him when i was pulled over.
 
 And he was gonna come get the car aswell. Thought i would take it for 1 last spin.
 What a regret that was..

 If you have had your licence under 2 years they stay for the 3 years.
 
 I THINK.
