You are talking utter twaddle and not helping anyone.
So if you tell me that you are not insured to drive your car, I am supposed to stop you driving it?

Only if you know that I am not insured. The law is written in plain English.
You must not allow an uninsured driver to drive a vehicle on public roads.

If you want to let them drive it then it is wise to ask for their insurance. They wouldn't be covered fully comp. A lot of policies allow you to drive another car with the owners permission as long as the owner has insurance for the car. The buyer would only be covered for third party in this case.
But once you have sold the car, your fully comp cover will have ended on the car. So the buyers third party cover will be useless if the buyer's own policy from another car states that any other car he drives third party has to have it's own insurance.0 -

That's carp.
The buyer owns the car so he must have insurance for that car and not 3rd party on his own policy.0 -
