Fixed Penalty ( Insurance)
« on: »
Been stopped by police. 06.06
My partner was driving  with no Insurance.  I was sitting nex to him and car had insurance only on my name.
After around two weeks he got his letter - 6 points 300£. He paid.
After 3 months 19.09 , received the same letter but this time on my name.
Offence- Use a motor wehicle on a road without third party insurance.  ( I had insurance)
And letter says that im getting the  same penalty 6 points 300£
Is that right?! Because its very confusing.
Hopefully someone can help.
Thanks.

If it was your car and you caused or permitted him to drive without insurance then you are (absent a defence) guilty of a similar offence. It really ought to say "caused" or "permitted" etc. but ultimately that it what you could be prosecuted for.
