Is it court to hold a coupé on a public road in need insurance as long as it is not driven - UK ONLY PLEASE?

I will be buying another car soon, and may have to shaving the old one (if I cannot PX or sell it quickly) because of adjectives the things wrong with it. Can I keep the infirm one on a public road after the insurance has lapsed, until I have sorted out what to do near it? It has a valid, current MOT certificate and the road export tax is also valid.
Answers:
NO
No it is not court to do this.
right if the car have tax it cna be on the road if it have no tax it has to be past its sell-by date the road and delcared to the DVLA as off teh road! so if it HAS tax and no insurance and u do not dirv eit its fine! if it have tax no insurance and u DO drive it then u willl be done for no insurance! so label sure u have tax!
NO,It has to be insured to keep on the queens highway.
NO.

It is an offence under Section 147 of the 1988 Road Traffic Act to hang on to or operate a motor vehicle on the public highway without adequate insurance cover.
'fraid not!
Must be insured to be on a public road, big brother now knows if it is insured or not. Look contained by your free newspaper or Yellow Pages and get a sliver dealer to take it away, some make a contribution you a couple of quid for it. Easier this way. Source(s): There coming to take you away, ok
The TRUE answer is, within the UK, a vehicle on the highway, which includes being parked or driven, MUST have the following :

1] A valid levy disk

2] Valid insurance to cover third party risks

3] A valid MoT if appropriate

In some areas an uninsured vehicle found on the road can be seized. Source(s): Traffic Officer
no - if it have no insurance it should be kept in a garage, driveway, if its on the road its unfair
No, it is not legalized. The bare minimum insurance available in the UK is to cover damage/injury your motor may cause someone else. If the handbrake fails, and the (non-running) motor rolls down a hill and crushes a baby, your insurance company would enjoy to cough up for a new baby. If you own no insurance, you'd have to pay for the little bugger... (maybe that's not such a right example....)
Your car can't be kept on the a public road if it's not insured even if its not person used on the road, it has to be kept on private property. If you be to insure it now you can transfer your insurance over to your unknown when you get, it's just an notion that might help you through this situation.
your insurance should agree to you add it as a temporary vehicle for nearly lb20 or so, ring them, explain, worth a try! or mail me with the details i might be interested.
Actually it's a bit of a grey area at the moment as the government are purely bringing in new law regarding this point.

You will notice that the acronym S.O.R.N is used this is certain as statutory off road notification.
So like i articulate it depends whether the government have brought this bright law in nonetheless.
You still requirement to have insurance on it even if it is not been driven. Some companies do provide discounts for 2 motor policies or ask someone if you can park it up in their drive, back garden or even if anyone have a spare garage you can lend for a while. You will get away without insurance if you live on a gentleness road but if anything should happen then you could enjoy big trouble on your hands.
No, if it's on a public road it must be insured, whether driven or not.
no Source(s): the directive
No ones actually given you a pretext, the correct answer is NO, because if someone drives into your car then even though your not driving it and even though your not at error, it will come to light that it is not insured. This could result in a scarcity of payout from their insurance and possibly a hefty fine because your gonna find it harder to prove that you AREN'T driving it than they are to claim you've got an uninsured car doing a tour. And how are you gona prove that you dont pop to the shops in it now and again?
as long as its tax its not a problem its only illegal if you drive it
No it is not trial and will be subject to seizure - which from what you say, might be doing you a desire lol
Definately not legal to have any vehicle doing a tour without third party insurance. This includes a vehicle incapable of anyone driven, i.e. no engine, no wheels, no axle, etc.
no it wont be permissible to have no insurance on the vehicle if it is in any public place.If you know anyone who will maintain it on private property that would be ok
i think that it is but you cannot drive it it solely has to be taken off the road if it have no tax
call your local statute enforcement agency to get the TRUE answer
NO

If it isn't insured it have to be kept on private property
if its got road tax later it should be fine
it has to be insured to be on a public road! Even if its just parked. Incase at hand is an accident involving your vehicle!
If the vehicle is on the road then you must own insurance. However you can probably get your insurance company to cover it as a temporary superfluous vehicle on your current policy.

I will clarify the above. The 1989 Road traffic act (143) states :

(a) a person must not use a motor vehicle on a road unless in that is in force in relation to the use of the vehicle by that character such a policy of insurance or such a security in respect of third delegation risks as complies with the requirements of this Part of this Act, and

There is a certain ambiguity surrounded by the word 'use' - is parking 'use'? However it is far better to have insurance rather than own the trauma of persuading a magistrate that you are not in contravention of the Act!

(1995) The Times June 14 Queen's Bench Divisional Court


A motor car parked on a road be being used on the road for the purposes of section 47 and 143 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 even if it was totally immobilised and could only be moved by mortal dragged away, and, therefore, required both a valid MOT certificate and an insurance policy
as long as you have rates no problem legally if you have no insurance and some tosser trashes your motor during the dark, night night vienna
No. Any car on the public highway must be insured.

Although it is unlikely, it would be sod's law if someone crashed contained by to it, and worse still, were injured or killed as a result. You could be surrounded by serious trouble.

I can only suggest you get the minumum insurance cover - 3rd gala - to make yourself legal. Shouldn't cost much.
i think it is ok i keep motors next to no insurance on the road all the itme aslong as in that is road tax
no thats unconstitutional if it was off the road it would be ok
