    Quite simple.
    "In that case, Sir, can you explain why the car is insured in your name living in Penzance, and yet the accident occurred while your son was driving it in Aberdeen?"

    If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.

    ...who happens to be a mature student staying at the halls of residence in Don Street...

    Yup! They'd buy that for sure ;)

    The point being, they rarely check these things out at point of sale, they'll follow things up (like accidents and convictions, NCB, etc) later, but in the event of a claim they have all the time in the world to check out whatever they want...
