No insurance? No excuse.

On Sunday afternoon, officers from the Doncaster East neighbourhood policing team stopped a vehicle as part of routine checks - and quickly discovered the driver had no valid insurance or driving licence.

Driving without insurance is not only illegal but it puts innocent road users at risk.

This individual now faces:

·  A fine of up to £300

·  6 penalty points on their licence

·  Their vehicle being seized

·  Potential court appearance

Insurance is not optional - it's a legal requirement to protect all road users. If you're caught driving without it, you risk losing more than just your car.

Always check you're properly covered before getting behind the wheel.

The driver will also face additional penalties at court with regards to driving without a valid licence.
