Don't courts impose points/bans on people who don't have a licence,basically on the assumption that someday they'll apply for one and then the points/ban will kick in?Also other than the on the spot fine/court fine wouldn't an offenders future insurance premium be adversely affected too?

All this praise for Jason is fine, and well deserved, but........for every one that gets stopped, I'll bet there are ten who don't. With all the cutbacks you hardly see any patrol cars nowadays, just when they are racing to an incident.

Yes, good point......

I find it worrying how I am agreeing more and more with you Steve, must be a retirement thing, best get a new job............

Insurers used to say 1 out of 3 cars wasn't insured. I've been on an op today 17 cars taken off the road for one thing or another. Really got me teeth into it today.

Do ANPR cameras flag up uninsured drivers or are they only used for vehicle duty offences?

[Crazycarzowner]

Yup, uninsured are flagged up!

Despite what Jason says, the answer is no. They flag up uninsured vehicles, not uninsured drivers. Even if the vehicle is insured, the driver may not be. Until they pass a law that all drivers must have a chip/barcode embedded in their foreheads that's readable from 100m there will not be a way of telling automatically if the driver is insured.

Now that's an excellent idea, when caught, tattoo the letter abbreviation "Can't Usee No Tax" on their foreheads, now that would be an excellent visual deterrent.
