If you knew a mate was driving without insurance etc on their other half's car would you do anything about it? Shes had one crash, but some how managed to tell police that he was driving etc, we all warned her that she shouldnt be doing it as she was very lucky to get away with it that time, but may not be so lucky in future. just leave her to get on with it and its her porblem if she loses licence etc? or intervine?

aye when i had my crash last month, was £3k of damage to my car plus all other expenses i paid, plus medical bills.....the guy who crashed into my didnt want me to contact insurance and for brief time i thought it was because he didnt have anyone, i was terrified as i couldnt afford to pay for it all myself....

Sounds like a tosser then. Why should everyone else have to pay?
I know people who can't afford insurance so they don't drive. Simple.

well said. you HAVE to have insurance to drive its not an option if you "dont have the spare cash" and i bet she spends money on clothes/drink/mobile phone etc etc.

If he has given her the3 keys he can get done, pretty easy to say she nicked them though I suppose.
I think she's a scumbag, but i would just maybe tell her how fucking stupid it is driving without insurance although I doubt she'll care if she already has that attitude.
Maybe just give her a wide berth and let her get herself into trouble, I wouldn't like the backlash and being known as a grass tbh

Yehp if he got found out
basicly the police would ask him did you know this person was driving your car and did you know they had no insurance if she gets stopped and she is on her own then the car will get recovered by the police.
any passenger in the vehicle may also be asked question relating to her not been insured

if ya want you can u2u me her name the registration of the vehicle which she drives and any possible route she may take frequently school run or place of work
i could put a note on the pnc system an if the vehicle is seen it can be stopped for a routine check
would be 2 weeks before i return to work or you can ring your local station an tell them you want to remain annonymous but before you ring dial 141 first

driving any vehicle on a public highway is an offence pedestrians are not the only thing that could be involved in RTA`s what about your life
