Perils of driving with no car insurance

Having no insurance whilst driving, is foolhardy and irresponsible as car insurance is a legal requirement, and accidents can easily occur.

Always make sure you have car insurance on the car you are driving.

If the police catch you driving without insurance, you could be subject to the following penalties.

£5000 penalty fine.
6 points on your license.
Fixed £200 fine.
Disqualification from driving.

All penalties are easily avoidable if you take out the appropriate vehicle insurance. We offer short term insurance on both vans and cars for 1-28 days. You can get an instant quote and cover that can be put into place immediately.

We can cover any sort of van from small Astra Vans to Ford Transits and larger, so long as you are qualified to drive it, we can supply the short term van insurance for you.
