Find answers to your legal question.





Do you get points on your license if ur caught driving JUST without tax/mot so long as cars legal otherwise?

like if it's insured, in good roadworthy condition, you have the appropiate license to drive at and it's JUST the mot or JUST the tax u aint got on it. I know you get a fine but wondering if points are included

JUST without tax/mot?? haha

You of course realise that if you are driving without tax and MOT then your insurance would probably be invalidated by the insurance company.

You are driving illegally and you will probably find a clause in the insurance that states if you are driving other than in accordance with the law that your insurance will be void in the case of an accident.

You will get the car impounded for no tax and then have to pay a large penalty to the dvla plus points and a fine from the courts.

I don't know about the points but if you don't have tax AND MOT your insurance is not valid!


migdalski
With a bit of luck, yes.

if you have a car on the road which hasnt an MOT or road tax no matter what the state of the car it will be towed away if the police catch you
if you have no MOT or tax the insurance is invalid so you will be prosecuted for that aswell so you will get 3 points for no tax 3 points for no MOT and 6 points for no insurance
you will not get the car back unless you get it made legal so you may as well kiss it goodbye
oh yes 12 points is a ban too !

Yes - if you are missing one crucial thing like MOT, generally your insurance is invalid so they do you for that too!

Yes, otherwise everyone would be driving without tax/mot, you couldn't get such a car insured anyway.

No Tax/MOT then NO INSURANCE. That's the way it is. Points and fine.

You have to pay the back tax and you get done as your car must have tax to get insurance so bad luck


JACQUI
YES you do

It is not legal to drive a vehicle without either displaying a visible tax disc, or having a current MOT certificate, my advice would be don't do it.

The link below will give you more information.


UCANTCME
Points are included as well...drive safe.


WelshLad
No points on licence for no tax, just a fine, or worse they impound it.

Then again no tax and no MOT = invalid insurance.


Jon1988
