The law on motor insurance has changed. If you own a vehicle and it is registered in your name then it must be insured at all times. If you don't want to use the vehicle, then you must contact the DVLA to declare the vehicle "off road". There are penalties for not having a valid insurance policy, and if your policy does not appear on the Motor Insurance Database (MID)you can expect to receive a warning letter in the post, followed by a fixed penalty fine.
