Speeding Case UK... help/advice

[awitejez]

Having gone for a night out I'd had a couple of drinks, so to be safe, and (what i thought at the time was)sensible my friend drove my car home, they had said that they had full insurance so they were covered to drive my car. However when driving home they were speeding and went through 30mph zone, at what I think could have been as high as 60 and got double flashed by a camera... it now turns out that they were not insured to drive my car either!now I am wondering what is likely to happen? as my friend would be in alot of trouble for driving without insurance i would take the points and a fine, however i will not take a lengthy ban... can anybody advise me on what is likely to happen?
thank you in advance

I'm surprised you refer to this individual as your 'friend' awitejez. Friends don't do this sort of things to each other. Obviously this clown has so little regard or respect for you that he/she would happily tell you lies and then hammer and abuse your vehicle - with you in it! Why did you let this idiot drive at 60 through a 30mph zone? Didn't you at least tell him to slow down?

I hope you're going to chuck this idiot into touch - he's not your 'friend'. Tell the police he was driving and led you to believe that he was insured. That's the best you can do I think. When they think so little of you do you really want to continue associating with this person and cover for them?
