Both chazza and spaced are incorrect. The lack of a valid MoT does not invalidate one's insurance. Nor does not having a driving licence, or a tax disc. The only thing that does automatically invalidate insurance is if the driver is disqualified (which is not the same as having no driving licence).



To check this out, take a visit to your local magistrates' court one day when a traffic court is sitting. You will find numerous cases of no MoT and/or no licence being prosecuted, without the far more serious offence of no insurance being automatically applied.
