So you got a result this time! Don`t let it go to you head just refrain from taking chances now.
Lucky fella

As Ethel says these offences are absolute and there is therefore no need to show an intemtion not to be insured.

Lets not blow this up out of proportion Haha sorry little joke !

and stay insured - the last thing you want is to knock someone down when you have no insurance as then you have to pay yourself for years and years and years.

I was not insured in my little mo-mo van in 1980
and someone went into the back of me
(18 year old sort of small young fella)
and my first thought was not - yippee ! new back!
but it was - chrissakes, if HE is hurt, I will have to report to the Police and then I will get completely screwed

I sort of made sure I was insured after that
What magistrates' court was it, mokhans?
how come at 10.13 you were asking what the punishment was likely to be and that the you couldnt go to court so wrote a letter and the case has "now been adjourned", you also answwered a post at 11.02 but then at 15.11 youd been to court and had your punishment, thought it had been adjourned??????

thank you howling norm and pete for your answers, yes i was very lucky and i assure you thath it was a genuine mistake that was made and i thankyou again for your replys.

and for the information of GINA 32 who clearly has too much time on her hands to look at the times that i post my answers (Get a good shag or alternativly a pet gold fish), i couldnt attend court 6 WEEKS AGO, and had my hearing this afternoon at 1.45pm.

kind regards (remember what i said)

and as for you ethel (you OLD BAG) stop being such a witch and try to grass me up to the court i attended that i am "boasting" on the net, cos i am not get it NOT. i hope that has got through your bolding scalp and into what little brain cells you have remaining - rub em together and start a fire love.

kind regards (raise pigs on a farm if youve got that much time on on your hands)

Hmm. Probably the last time anybody here does anything for that little cretin.
you're losing sympathy fast here, mokhans. Most of the answers you got here were also genuine. No need to abuse people for it.
I was not intending to 'grass you up' to the courts.

I was going to evaluate all that courts recent sentencing for motoring convictions to establish why they are flagrantly ignoring current government guidelines.

By the way - it is 'balding', not 'bolding'.

And I didn't know you know me so well.

And don't forget to tell your insurance company you have a motoring conviction - it is part of the terms and conditions.
mokhans I'm not sure if studying law entitles you to wear an extra star at McDonald's but hey, go for it!
Norman, they are in law now aswell
mokham, what an ignorant, nasty person you are.
how pathetic and rude are you?? dont bother answering because i think everyone on here knows
what a revolting and repugnant little runt you are.

clearly at 18 you feel you know it all and for some reason believed you would be ok for just one day - don't even try to bullsh*t your pathetic little sob story - you are an arrogant lying little fukcwit

and i don't believe for a minute you got away with it - you are just saying it to save face

you see, many people on here are a lot older and wiser that you, (probably everyone actually) and can smell the bs. we have heard it all before - all the ''oh, i didn't know'' etc etc - it doesn't wash on here - or in court - they will simply call the insurance company, they will have phone records of the time of the call and they will soon see whether you are telling the truth - they may also want to see brothers phone records.

and why would you get insured for just one day?
surely you could have just got a taxi for the day?
who does that?
you are like a child caught smeared with chocolate, that comes up with some ridiculous unbelievable and ill conceived excuse, who then has an indignant tantrum when he is not believed!

as for the vicky pollardesque drivel and lame attempts at insults below - 'balding...?' what kind of cretinous nonsense is floating round your head?
you do realise people on here are just laughing at the state of your mind, don't you?
you in no way sound formidable (look it up) or menacing - just childish.
you sound much younger than your 18 years - time you grew up.

you are a stupid liar, who got caught. well done... snigger.
joko, thanks for the best put-down I've read in a long time! ('formidable - look it up' - classic!) I thought this thread was interesting until the OP went off at Ethel like that. I've read many bits of extremely useful advice from her, and there was absolutely no need to reply as mokhans did. But you said all I would have liked to and more - restored my faith in AB!
