Cheddar Bob Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 So I am curious to find out what an insurers take is on driving during lockdown and having a requirement to use insurance, if the journey wasn't considered "essential" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowbos Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 You could make almost any journey 'essential'... I can't believe they could wriggle out of anything that happened whilst driving at the moment, surely the small print does not allow for the current situation?

Cheddar Bob Posted January 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Im not so sure. If the government said no going out and you did, that might constitute an issue somewhere... I'm just guessing. Im going out now to the shops for essential shaving gel oh and dinner for tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMA Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Looking at the roads around here there are a hell of a lot of essential trips happening. Almost like there is no lockdown..... A mate had an accident last week, no mention of if it was an essential trip when he dealt with his insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that. My one bit of daily exercise is walking my dog. Trying to cross Newton Road in Bletchley is a flippin' nightmare in the morning. Waited for 4 mins the other day and the 2 mini roundabouts near the Three trees pub/ Tesco local were queuing in all directions this morning Obviously, just blame Boris for the increase in COVID cases!

Southy Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 Insurance companies have no instructions around restrictions for vehicle use during lockdown. You would have to get something in writing from your insurance company stating you are not covered if you do X Until then drive free! PS that won't stop the police pulling you over though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
