MOT fine

V-Spec · 29 Jan 2007 at 09:17

Got my fine through from the court, £60 fine £43 costs... It doesn't say its endorsable, and if I go onto car insurance websites, tick the box which says "I have been convicted of a driving offence" on the next page it shows every single driving offence in existence, but I cannot find the no MOT one.. also there is no code associated with it, all the other offences have like "CD10" or something next to them, I don't have any code for mine,,, does this mean I put it down in insurance quotes, or do I just forget it... Now they've got my money it all seems to become a bit vague :confused:

Nope, i just paid mine and was done with it

There isn't a code for MOT iirc, just a fine, which you don't have to tell your insurer about

thanks guys,

So by that I imagine that it doesn't actually class as a conviction? just need to know for work purposes..... I havn't had any paperwork saying ive been convicted or anything,, just a sheet with a fine on..

I don't think it's a conviction, more like a parking ticket, don't quote me on this though!

Nope, as said above, similar to a parking ticket.

unless I'm mistaken then you only need to inform your insurer about endorsable offences or bans.
if its something that just carries a fine then pay it and forget about it.

i'll be double checking, as I don't wanna cause problems for myself later.. but you've confirmed my suspicions.. thanks guys

Nope, no need to declare this to an insurer.
