Good evenng all
I am writing this post re a friend of my daughters who is 19 and has recently changed her reg to a private one but forgot to notify her insurer. She was pulled over recently for no insurance but explained she did have insurance but had forgotten to tell her insurer. After having her car impounded she has been given a ticket for no insurance and been told she will have 6 points and have to retake both her theory and driving test as within the first 2 years.
What is the advice please - my thoughts are that this is not fair to treat an insured driver who has made an admin mistake the same s someone who has intentionally avoided getting insurance. She has already spoken to her insurer to get it updated and was told that had a claim been made it would still have been honoured.
Help !
