    Report it. No doubt the chav's will be along on this thread soon with phases like 'mind your own business' and 'who made you the law, keep your nose out' etc but in my experience people who can't afford to insure, can't afford to keep it maintained either. When someone is a danger to us all, then it IS our business.

    I would report it in a blink, hopefully it will be siezed and melted down into something useful like a park bench.
  • Mind your own business.

    There, job done.

    As somebody who got a fine for loading a scrapped vehicle from my driveway onto a wagon, (parked on public road, for less than five minutes) by some busybody neighbour with precious little to do, I'd say keep well out the way.

    As someone who pays his insurance and ensures his car is roadworthy and who dislikes children and other innocents being killed/injured by these jerks, I'd say report them...

    Whilst it sounds like you got a raw deal you cannot be honestly suggesting that you condone this behaviour?
  • Unless the problem is affecting you directly, I would suggest you find a hobby to keep you away from the net curtains.

    I'm not a chav either.

    You sound like one. Anything to absolve your self of all responsibility for anything that does not directly effect you.

    Thank God not everyone is as selfish and has a bit more pride than agreeing to the lowest common denominator.

    No, I just detest people who spend all day worrying about the actions of others.

    I totally agree it's an issue that needs resolving, I don't like the guilt trip martyrdom of "I pay car insurance" I can assure you my cars are fully insured, taxed and tested. You, like me are in the majority, you're not special because you do I'm afraid.

    Just write an anonoymus letter to the local cop shop if you will, but expect comeback if it's traced back to you.

    I am not suggesting that I am special and I think you know that.

    Unfortunatly we are not that much in the majority as there are somewhere in the region of 2 million uninsured drivers in the UK.

    If I knew it was being driven, I'd be on the phone to Crimestoppers.

    It's hard enough sometimes claiming off an insured driver who hits you.

    Part of every driver's insurance premium goes towards a government fund that pays out to victims of uninsured motorists.

    Doesn't that make it his business?
