The MIB campaign has been put together to ensure drivers don’t take the risk of letting their insurance expire even for one day. The AA is fully behind the programme to ensure car owners keep their car insurance up to date. A part from the obvious, “what if you have an accident argument” there is also the law to content with and with 180,000 cars taken off the road last year because of no insurance, there is also a financial one.

However there are also some more honest issues, in that many drivers have the wrong registration against their insurance policy, meaning if they were to be stopped by the police, any check done may show you are no insured, which may take some time to get sorted. Apparently some digits can easily be written down wrong by both the driver and insurance company, an honest simple mistake, which can cost time and money.

So the next time you renew your car insurance or even breakdown cover policy, take some time out to make sure all details are correct, right down to  registration number. The MIB stands for the Motor Insurers Bureau of which the AA (who is also an insurer) and not (Men In Black) fully supports the programmes os much it added it as part of their news section.
