Hence the changes to the law to allow fines to be sent to the
registered keeper with no requirement to identify the driver.
If the keeper can prove it was insured he doesn't have to pay.


How's that going to help with the large motoring underclass[1] who don't
register as the keeper of the car and who don't pay fines?

[1] Probably not a PC term but I once had to sit through a seminar on
social exclusion which included the argument that many young men,
especially those from certain ethnic minorities and sink estates,
couldn't possibly afford to insure a car; as a result they were socially
excluded and/or criminalised; so the government should intervene to
regulate the market so insurers were obliged to offer them "affordable
policies". Just a thought in case you wondered where the EU may go next
now they have decided it's wrong for the insurance industry to take
account of differences between sexes.
