Advantages: peace of mind

Disadvantages: pain and heart ache

Reading my local evening paper the other night I stumbled across the "Court In Brief" section , after close scrutiny I read that 12 different people had been convicted for driving their car without insurance and if memory serves me correctly the highest penalty any of them recieved was £150.00 fine, 8 points on their licence and ordered to pay costs of £30.00. I have 2 vehicles a car and a van and in total I pay almost £2000.00 per year for the peace of mind that if I were unlucky enough to be in an accident that my damages would be paid for but primarily the fact that if I were to injure someone or god forbid even cause someones death then that person or their family would at least have the benefit of compensation! I feel that anyone who blatantly and meaningly drives any vehicle on the roads without motor insurance is willfully brandishing a lethal weapon and putting 2 fingers up to society. These people should at very minimum recieve much harsher penalties and to an extreme they should be made to attend road traffic accidents , help paramedics , firemen and police officers scrape the remains of victims from the wreckage and then go and explain to their families why they must secure a loan against their house or sell their car to pay for the loved ones funeral who has just been killed by someone too irresponsible and antisocial to insure their vehicle!
