No don't be sorry. It's your car and you're free to drive it without MOT as you please.
Check your insurance documents as it may state what their policy is on the issue.

Because you are not free to drive your car without a current MOT as you please. That, as well as remarks made on other threads, leads me to believe that this poster is a troll.

having no mot attracts a £60 fine and zero points. seeing as it costs about £50 to get one even if it passes first time its a very generously low fine and worth risking in some circumstances.0

The maximum penalty, for driving a car on the public highway, or where the public have access to, whilst not having a valid MOT test certificate, is one thousand pounds.
However, using a car in a dangerous condition, carries a maximum fine of two thousand five hundred pounds and three penalty points. You could even be disqualified, if you have committed the same offence within the last three years.The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -
a friend of mine was pulled over by an unmarked police car with anpr. They told him he had no mot which he knew and admitted to, and gave him a £60 ticket.0

The fine of a thousand pounds is a maximum. I suppose the police officer made a judgement call and decided what would be most appropriate. On top of which, your friend still had to have an MOT done.The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -
When making a claim I was asked for a copy of my license. I believe that is standard practice for most insurance companiesBut then, a driving licence is also a requirement, but I have never been asked to produce one as a matter of course.

Sadly, I have had to make two claims in the past twelve moths and on neither occasion have I been asked to produce my driving licence. I suppose they have direct access to the database at DVLA.The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -

Insurers share information and have access to MID. I do not believe they have access to DVLA records."A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi
