Motoring offences up by 22 per cent

Continued from last issue 2. Vehicle insurance offences

Vehicle insurance offences were the second most common motoring conviction in 2021 at nearly 20%. Both speed limit offences and vehicle insurance related offences combined accounted for 50% of all motoring prosecutions in 2021. There were 1,217 people disqualified from driving for 6 months to a year due to insurance related offences in 2021. And over 46,000 people were issued with fines between £500 and £750 for vehicle insurance offences. It’s illegal to drive without at least third party cover, but you could still be penalised if you haven’t got the right cover. If you’re caught driving without car insurance, the

police could give you a fixed penalty notice of £300 and 6 penalty points. Though if the case goes to court you could get an unlimited fine and could be disqualified from driving. 3. Failing to supply the identity of the driver For some driving offences SUNRISE SERVICE & MOT CENTRE you’re served a Notice of Intended Prosecution or NIP. It’s served to the vehicle’s registered owner who then provides information on who was driving the vehicle at the time of the offence. If you don’t know who was driving the vehicle when the offence occurred, you need to have a valid reason for this, for example, if your car was stolen. If you don’t provide this information, your case could be taken to court.

MOTS, SERVICING AND REPAIRS Around 16% of the most common motoring convictions in 2021 were related to this. Over 70,000 people received a fine between £500 and £750. And 158 people received a driving ban of up to 6 months for failing to supply the driver’s identity. 4. Driving under the influence Convictions for driving under the influence increased Passat Estate 2005 new mot cambelt excellent condition £1200 07879 213219 MOTS, SERVICING AND REPAIRS ON ALL VEHICLES UP TO 3.5 TONNES INCLUDING HORSEBOXES AND MOTORHOMES Bodyshop open for all repairs and restorations, from small scratches to complete resprays, insurance work welcome.

Some fines of over £10,000 were issued to people who were over the legal limit. If you’re caught drink driving, or driving under the influence of drugs you could get a possible driving ban, 6 months in prison and an unlimited fine. This varies depending on the severity of the offence. Some drink driving offences include: Being in charge of a vehicle while above the legal limit or unfit through drink Driving or attempting to drive while above the legal limit or unfit through drink Refusing to provide a specimen of breath, blood or urine for analysis Causing death by careless driving when under the influence of drink You might see your car insurance prices increase as a result of a drink or drug driving offence.
