Backdating the Logbook For No Insurance Offence

Question:

Caught doing 37MPH at 30MPH road and No Insurance

The NIP has only indicated the offence of over speeding at the moment and has required me to provide the name of the driver. Though there was additional clause that if subsequent check reveal the car was at the time of the offence driven without certificate of insurance proceedings may be commenced in respect of those additional offences.

What can I do? I am thinking of completing and send the log book back to DVLA and putting a date before the incidence as the sold date. My licence is just 8 months old and I do not want to lose it.

Paula Says:

You need to just tell the truth. Please don’t lie about selling the vehicle. You will then be committing the offence of attempting to pervert the course of justice and you will be at risk of prison if you get caught. Just tell the truth and sit and wait. If you get told you are going to be summonsed for a no insurance offence come back to me and I will be able to help.

I help over 93% of my new driver avoid revocation – so don’t panic. We do this with honest and lawful procedures and I am sure we will be able to help.

Keep me informed and don’t so anything naughty!
