MIB calls its crackdown campaign on uninsured driving a success
According to the Motor Insurance Bureau, police seized 150,000 uninsured vehicles from UK roads.
In 2006, the number was 78,000, said the MIB.
In the same two-year period the number of claims involving uninsured and untraced drivers fell by almost 10%. The MIB said that equates to more than £30m in savings.
"There is no doubt about it – we are really beginning to win the war against uninsured driving. Now, with Continuous Insurance Enforcement (CIE) just a year away, there really will be no hiding place left for those drivers who continue to drive without insurance," said an MIB spokesperson.
