You understand that insurance COMPANIES are a business don't you, otherwise they would be called insurance CHARITIES.
They charge young people more as they are a higher risk, as are people with drink driving convictions, previous bans, numerous offences, shit postcode areas, epilepsy etc.

If you cant afford 1500 then you dont drive.
Same as if you cant afford a 90,000 house, you dont squat in one. Or if the heinz baked beans are too expensive, you buy the lidl 6p ones & dont just take what you want. Its called being part of a civilised society.
Live the dream within your means.

i am well aware of how an insurance company works thanks, however when said insurance companies will insure a 800 quid car for an annual premium of 1500 odd quid i can completely understand the numbers of uninsured drivers. I pay my premium, I pay my tax i am just saying I understand why someone might not.

If you go & thank them then next time I guarantee that they will, because an element of trust has been built & they will think your a nice guy thats simply forgot rather than a sruffy self centred twat that doesnt give a shit what their neighbours think of them.

I did not see anywhere Colin where someone went upto the person in this thread and told them about the tax, maybe if they were told they would tax and insure the car, if you told them and a week later its still the same then at least you gave them a chance.

Im not surprised so many people on here defend tax evaders. I can only assume most of you are doing the same whilst claiming benefits and sat in your council flat blowing the TAX I PAY on games consoles, new car goodies and the 6 kids you've got with 6 different women.
Bunch of rittards!

At 2 months you politly tell them their tax has run out, 12 months you should be getting the taser out & vinny jones-ing their skull between the door, never mind informing the DVLA.

She is old enough to drive, she is old enough to manage her time and money without being reminded like a child.
If you don't have tax or insurance, especially for that period of time, then it's an intentional act (look how much shit comes through at renewal time, even from firms you aren't insured with) and the fact something in the windscreen which your neighbour can see has suddenly become invisible to you?
You are clutching at straws TBH.
Oh look, another car insurance advert on the break for Corrie - that reminds me, I must remember to not insure my car...

Sorry Danny...that is aimed ONLY at those being overly and unjustifiably defensive about those that cost us honest people lots of money in inflated tax. A generalisation I know and perhaps not entirely fair...but it sickens me.
Apologies if my comment has caused offence to anyone who is earning an honest crust and paying their way fairly.

Just to point out about askmid I wouldn't pay any attention to that. It's said my bike isn't insured since I've owned it but it is.

Nah I dont see either of those scenarios as being acceptable. Everyone has tax to pay, just like everyone has an arse to wipe. Theres only 1 way to do each its not that difficult, there are no excuses not to do so!!

I agree with Colin. It doesn't take weeks to tax a car. There are ways of doing these things, some people are just too lazy/tight

Its generally a simple thing to do, even if like me you end up forgetting to take down certain forms & have to make return visits, & still I never thought fuckit!!
Just get it done.....no excuses.

Unless he is uninsured, which would then affect anybody he crashes into.
That has NOTHING to do with the no tax issue you simple minded oaf

If you have no tax your insurance is invalid (unless booked in for an MOT locally) so it's about both TBH.
No, it's not. It's about no tax.

Yes it is. Read your documents, the same applies to the MOT. It's therefore about both.
