The police is the government and they can do many things, including towing away your uninsured vehicle. Do you expect a law enforcement officer to break the law and allow uninsured vehicle stay on the road?

What happens if you dont have a CBT and the police stop you and want to see it?

The police can roadside check with the DVLA to see if one has been issued and, if so, you will be given a week to produce it at a police station. If you have not obtained a CBT or it has run out you will get points on your licence. If you do not have a licence, the points will be kept until you do. You are driving illegally so your insurance is invalid. Your vehicle could be impounded and scrapped. You may go to court and get a criminal conviction and a hefty fine.


What happens if you wreck a car that you dont insure?

If the vehicle has insurance it will cover damage to the other vehicle but not the one you are driving. Now if you have insurance on another vehicle your insurance will cover the damage to the vehicle that you where driving even though it is not on your policy.

You should have been given a proof of insurance card from your insurance company. Call them for it and if necessary present it to the judge, that should clear the matter up.

What happens no drivers license but car is insured in someone else's name and you are involved in car accident?

***UK answer*** Depends if the car is registered to your or the other person. If its your car then you will be done for driving with no insurance or driving whilst banned or driving with no license or a combination of the three. However if its not your car and you borrowed it you will again be charged with driving with no license and insurance, (If no license then you dont have insurance, the driver must be insured not the car) but whoever you got the car from could also be charged with knowingly allowing a vehicle to be driven illegally (illegally because you - the driver had no insurance and license), if you dont want to get the other person in trouble - or they may say you took it if they dont want the trouble - then you will probably be charged with TWOC (taking without consent) as well as no driving with no license and insurance. The other persons insurance may pay out if you are found to have taken the car without consent as most cars are insured for theft. However the owner will have to prove this and if there is reason for doubt they wont pay out - unless the police say you did it, but then you will be charged. If its your car and you just dont have insurance yet but (for example) your mate has insured it for him to use while you cant drive it then im afraid it looks like you may have a heavy bill for the other cars you damaged and also court costs and legal fees if you get arrested...not to mention the heavy fine you'll get!

How do you make an insurance claim when someone hits you if you dont have insurance and they do?

You don't need to have insurance to collect on an insurance policy. Just call their claims department and they will get it started.The only issue is that in some states, such as New York, insurance is mandatory in order to register an automobile and be able to drive it. If you are in such a state, and you file a claim for an accident in which you did not have insurance, you could well be charged for driving without insurance and you would probably lose your license.
