my 19 yr old son is driving around without car insurance and mot what should i do,?

If it is not your car: He is an adult now and must be permitted to make his own decisions.

If it is not his car (not yours): So be it!

If it is your car: Take the keys and do not allow him to drive it. If he wants to argue with that, tell him to get a job and pay his portion of the insurance as well as rental fees and gas.

There you go.

Oh yeah, I am in a state that does not require insurance so it doesn't really matter here but all else above applies.

First of all the State of Illinois has a very stiff fine for not having insurance. Second of all you have to think of what will happen if you hit a car. How would you pay for the car you hit?
Some states the owner of the car you hit can pull your driving privliges from you until his car is paid off. believe me driving without insurance ins't worth it . do some homework and try to get at least a a liability policy. It won't cover your car but will cover the other guys.
If you hit someone who long do you want to be paying for it?

Insure and mot his car for a christmas present.

If the police find out that you don't have insurance they take your car away and crush it. They find out in seconds which road users have insurance and which don't. It's not worth the risk. Tell him to sort the insurance and mot out.

autoinsurance.noneto.com - check this one. As I remember they have lowest car insurance rates for teens and young drivers.

get your vehicle insured
and let him do what he wants to

You might want to tell him the risks involved in that since some states it the law that you have to be insured. I would also tell him that if he get in a accident he could get sued and if he still lives with you then that could be a problem. Even if he gets just minimum coverage. Since he does not own a house then he could just get the bare bones coverage with a liability of 50,000

Take the keys off him or report him to the police.

He will get raped by police.

If an ANPR camera catches him (There are tons, most police cars have them, every motorway has them) you will have a summons through the door.

If hes caught, car will be removed, crushed, he will then be taken to court, banned for at least 1 year, fined several thousand Â£Â£Â£ and depending on his past he may end up in the jail.

Unless you can get him to get insurance and an MOT, there is not much you can do about it (other than report him to the police which I don't think is a good idea). If he gets stopped by the police, which is extremely likely if the car is not shown as insured on the Motor Insurance Database (http://www.askmid.com/ownvehicle/ ), then he's looking at 6 points on his licence for driving uninsured as well as a fine. His car will also be seized at the roadside. Oh, and for the record, driving a car without an MOT carries only a fine and no points (same applies to road tax). The best thing you can do is try to convince him to get insurance (and an MOT) before it's too late. I hope he doesn't have to learn the hard way. Good luck!

If you cannot get the keys away from him then you have no alternative but to report him to the Police

Report him to the Police, or put his details up here and I will. HE is the reason we all pay more insurance in this country, why should we pay for idiots like him?

WelshLad

Are you serious?!

damian

call the cops.

pipe strangler

What do you think. What woud you think if he managed to knock somebody down, ok thats possibly worst case but its the likes of me and the other genuine motorists who have to pay for your sons mistakes if he does have an accident and damages or worse something or someone else. Stop him now before it happens or if he wont shop him and thats all our problems stopped as the Police have the power to seize uninsured cars immediately and they can be crushed then there is the fine which can be costly and points which can spoil ones chances of employment. Get him insured or off the road.

Punch him in the mouth-then take way his keys.

whos car is it yours or his
if its your car take keys
kick his @**
his car nothing cop wil catch him and when he gets out of jail he wil know how to do it right

With the amount of Police cars that are fitted with ANPR cameras, he is very unlikely to be driving much longer.
If he is stopped and can not produce insurance at that time then his car will be impounded at a cost to him, about Â£120.00, before he gets it back he must pay that, plus about Â£12.00 a day storage and he must produce a current insurance police for the vehicle. Asking his mate to pick his car up does not work, the Police are wise to this.
He will also be given 6 points on his licence plus a fine of about Â£150.00 for the insurance and 3 points plus a fine for no MOT.
Tell him to stop driving or you will report him, if he is involved in an accident, who is going to pay for the damage to the other vehicle or for injuries others may receive. If you do not report him, then you are just as bad as him.

marcus VI

Shop him, it's idiots like Hon who wind up killing innocent people !

Roosh

His car?....if he won't listen to you then tell the police.

pete

Phone the police.
Use crime stoppers.
You will be doing him and all other road users a big favour.
