No he was approached while loading the car outside the take away, all the meals where in the boot in a  thermal container.
His car wasn't impounded but he wasn't allowed to deliver them.
It was the same the second time which ended up in court (very strange when he wasn't doing anything illegal ) he gave it up
after that as he was on the verge of loosing his licence and it wasn't worth his while paying for multi drop business insurance
as it was only a part time Saturday night job.
Just think if what you are saying was true he would certainly be entitled to compensation and the 6 points he got on his license revoked.
I certainly know that the police can make mistakes but blatant corruption you would nearly think this was China or similar.

my mate delivers for a Chinese take away and has been done and fined twice
for doing it without the proper cover.

Was he done once or twice ? If the first time he hadn't drove and just loaded up with takeaways what did they do him for ? No insurance because he put meals in the back of his car but never drove ? Come on get it right !!! 

BTW i doubt he'd get compensation, but he could get his case re opened if information has conme to light which would reverse the descision made in court.......i.e he had an insurance policy. I'll guess he pled guilty 

Wow

How many fireman, policeman and state workers do window or a second job part time and do they pay tax.  Not at all. Every fireman in my area do window part time and they have flashy car to prove their true income. On a firemans salary. NO. If they paid tax it would eat up all the extra income.

Every fireman in your area does window cleaning?  how many are in your area ? how many of them do you know?

They all have flashy cars? .......every single one of them ? Really!

If they are not paying tax why haven't you reported them ?

Slap , you really are a prize bell end !

Im a firefighter and a window cleaner , i don't have a flash car , in fact i don't have a car at all ..............and i will happily show you my last 3 years tax returns if you have the courage to bring your uneducated self down to southampton and meet me ?

Mate what are you on ? I don't think it the lack of business insurance you need to worry about when driving.

SurelY the proble here is that if you had a accident and you were say "delivering sandwiches" or were window cleaning on a standard insurance policy, then your insurance company would say it was void as you weren't insured for that purpose?

And so in that case the police can say you have an invalid policy. Your not insured to use this vehicle for work.

Or is it a case of the police can't and have to prove it?

Sounds to me like one of these "don't pay your water bill" things as nothing actually happens to you if you stop.

Keep it simple. Pay what's due, pay your taxes, live without the worry of having to go to court for something that would have only cost you a few quid a month in the first place.

Police can prove it without even approaching you its all on their database, Cleanclear is right by law all you need is third party
insurance.
They will need to prove that you are using the vehicle for business use but if your carrying cleaning equipment and you say
that its for personal use well it wont be hard for them to suss out the truth.
But as we all know by not declaring certain facts you can render that insurance void, that's the whole insurance not just
the comprehensive part.
So in other words you wont be insured for anything.

If you claim with business insurance, don't you have to then show our company is registered and you're paying tax etc?   I thought that was why people didn't register their cars for business, as in case of an accident the insurance company wanted tax forms and other evidence of your company being legit being sent.
