No wonder people don't insure vehicles!If you watch any of those silly UK cop shows late night on Foxtel, it seems that it is the individual that is insured and if you don't have any property damage insurance the Police can impound and crush your vehicle.

The insurance information is also collated on the ANPR system database.

Nah not quite

In the UK you have to have insurance min third party . There is not CTP in the uk

You go and get insurance for the your car . But on full comp you normally are allowed to drive someone else's car third party . But that car you drive has to have a different insurance policy on it. The method behind this is to stop you having three cars of your own and insuring one and then driving the other two on the third party from the first car. This is normally where people fall down on these shows and think they can drive an uninsured car on their third party insurance . Which as will have seen they can't

If I understand correctly, your reply still sort of indicates that the individual has to have third party (property/personal injury) to cover their driving of the car that they are using at the time. Even if that car has comprehensive on it from the owner of the car?

Is that how it works or something completely different????? :confused:

If I'm driving your car and carrying the third party from my car's policy and I smash your car, does your comprehensive repair the damage I did to your car?

No

Alot of friendships have ended because of that

That is where the rule of " you bend it you mend it " comes into borrowing a car.

That is where the rule of " you bend it you mend it " comes into borrowing a car.I think I somehow prefer the system we have here where the insurance is on the car, irrespective of the driver and only the excess payable changes for underage etc drivers.
