a quick question car on the road with no insurance

[bendee]

my dads having the drive done tomorrow and i have another car that isnt insured yet can it be left on the road as long as it has tax and mot? just not insurance

 

[Deeg]

Nope.

Needs to be insured AFAIK.

It would probably be ok.

BUT, I'm sure if someone accidentally bumped it you may find yourself in hot water.

Technically no. Not allowed to be driven on public highway.

You could push it around I suppose. But if someone breaks in or crashes into your car, you wont be covered.

if its just for a day stick a car cover over it till you need to put it back on the drive

As above, I'm sure you can get 1 day cover... could you not add the car onto your other policy/parents policy just for the day. Doubt it would cost much.

Any neighbours who drive you could steal for the time being?

Onde day cover is £20 roughly but you must be over 25 usually.

Material car cover, or day insurance cover?

technically no, but would 99% of the population just put it on the front of the house for day? Yes. Doesnt make it right, but I probably would. Theft is no different to it being on the drive - unisured. If someone crashes into then they have to pay.

If you put it on the road then it should have a policy of insurance that covers third party risk. Makes no difference if driven, pushed or dropped from the sky.

Reality is for a day nobody is gonna notice/care. Only be an issue if someone else hits it. Although it will be their fault they will I'm sure make a big issue over the fact your car was uninsured at the time. You takes your chances.
