No, but you can book an MOT test for it and you are then legally entitled to drive it to the MOT testing station, provided that you are insured. Once it has been tested you can then legally drive it home from the MOT testing station, providing it has not been deemed to be "unsafe to drive."

I recommend you this site where you can compare quotes from different comapnies: INSURANCE-QUOTES-FREE.INFO


I let my friend drive my car and he totaled it how can i sue him?

you can't sue him if he had your permission to drive car. you need to collect from your insurance company. if you don't have insurance - you're outta luck.


You purchase the car at the dealer for your friend does the insurance has to be under your name also?

No, insurance does not always follow the owernership of the car unless you and your friend live in the same house and you have your driver's licence. If you tell the insurance company that you are not going to drive the car at all time and main driver is your friend, then you do not have to be under the same insurance.


If you allowed a friend to drive your car and he totaled it but his insurance company subtracted 500 from the check for the deductible why do you pay for his deductible?

Because this was an at-fault incident, the 500.00 deductible is your responsibility. You as the owner of the vehicle allowed your friend to drive the car to begin with. Your friend in all fairness should pay you the 500 dollars. Why is your friend's insurance paying you? Your own comprehensive/collision policy should pay you (less the deductible) and then "subrogate" the claim to your friend's auto or general liability insurance or sue him directly if he has no insurance and send you the deductible after they have collected.


Who's insurance covers you if you drive a friend's car but only have a learner's permit and your parent's and the friend are insured?

Usually the insurance on the car covers any permitted driver unless that driver is excluded in writing.


Would it effect the insurance he could get for his own car if my friend crashed my car with a learner's permit?

I wouldn't worry about your friend and his insurance, but your own. If you are a minor your parents owe for damages that your friend did to the other car. If you allowed him to drive the car without your parents permission that is a problem too. That was not smart allowing someone to drive your car.


Can you legally drive a friend's car if you are under your parent's insurance and said car is insured by your friends family?

You would be covered by the insurance on your friend's car if you are driving it with their permission. To be safe, get the parents' permission, not just your friend's. It may be that your friend can't give a legally binding permission.


If you had permission to drive a friend's car and had a wreck can the friend sue you even though the friend's insurance should cover the damage?

Yes. The person is entitled to collect the insurance deductible and any other damages that were incurred due to the fault of the driver of the vehicle.


If you have insurance on your own car and are visiting a friend in another state do you need insurance on your friend's car to drive it for few days?

Generally no, your insurance should extend to any car you drive. Some exceptions do exist like if your were driving professionally say as a limo driver. A quick call to your agent would answer difinitively but generally I think you are safe.
