Yes you have got it wrong.
Anyone filling in a a proposal for motor insurance is asked if they have had any convictions in the last x years.
Whether or not points were awarded the conviction would need to be declared so affecting the premium charged.

also this is a similar argument to another thread about the courses that you can take in the UK instead of getting points. does your argument carry in that situation too then in that customers who do the course still have to tell the insurance company?

thanks that is interesting. although wouldn't it be impossible for the insurance company to check if anyone was lying about it?

thanks interresting again, sorry i missed that in the original thread. I'd never heard of this process - is access to this data available to insurance companies or just the police?

Any more funny questions? How about why is it called No claims bonus and not No Blames Bonus or how about why does Axa's hold music sound like the backing music to a blue film
