European law states that all vehicles must be fully roadworthy, i.e in posesison of a valid, legal MOT, a valid certificate of registration and have paid taxes in the country the vehicle is registered in, and with those one can buy insurance, a further legal requirement, without any of the former, the insurance is invalid.
How would you feel if your car was hit by one of these, your car is a write off and you are seriously injured and cannot work, who's going to cover the costs if the other driver is not correctly insured? You will ultimately, with a rise in the premuims and the loss of your no claims. Same applies too, if you were a pedestrian and hit by an uninsured driver.
Even if the other driver has all the correct paperwork, and is fully insured, they will only be covered for a maximum of 90 days outside of the country their vehicle is registered in....
It also does not follow legally that a vehicle registered and even inspected, but not insured in the counrty of registration, but in the country its being driven in, this situation is also against EU laws and here in Spain, the Guardia Civil are stopping such vehicles and giving them a 30 notice to re-register their car.
Whoever thinks that driving a vehicle without correct paperwork and documentation is OK, they are the most stupidest people around and I hope they never sit behind the wheel of a vehicle |

Who told you that????
It is not the case!
Every one in EU has to have insurance and once they enter UK with their cars they haveto pay road tax.
The police is out there checking cars for MOT, insurance and road tax.
Trust me, these immigrants make UK work so stop being a ***** and mind your own bussines! |
