The courts are generally fair, so I imagine that if you get a letter from your broker restating the error, you'll get off with a slap on the wrist - a fine, a couple of points. Get it insured wherever immediately. By doing all the right things, Your Honour will honour the mitigating circumstances. I'm not a legal eagle. but generally common sense dictates. Best of luck and post the result!My van insurance was up in November 2007 but I got no notification. I didn't know until I was stopped by the cops today. I have to produce my insurance in 10 days. Went to the broker who said that there was an error and they never got it from the company(who have stopped insuring vans). They should have got my bonus but didn't. They said they are sorry but it is up to me to renew the policy. I thought they had to send out the renewal. Surely this is the insurance companies and brokers fault. I am going to end up in court over this.

Went to a different broker. They gave me insurance from yesterday mornign so as far as the cops are concerned I was covered.
No TG, not to date. Presumably the 60 euro fine was for non-display of a current insurance disc?something similar happened to me lately..got stopped had april 07 up (i know i hear you all screaming how lapse can one be) but thing is i had renewed and in april07 the insurance company who i better not mention sent me out wrong cert- april 07instead of 08- i was then away travelling until janurary-(was only suppose be gone 3months so car was insured while i was away) anyway long story short when i got onto insurance company when i arrived back and again they sent me out april07 instead of april 08!! despite numerous phonecalls,they kept going into wrong policy! so in meantime i got stopped by guards, i then produced correct insurance (finally )within the ten days and then i got a shock fine of 60 euro in the post (garda who stopped me never mentioned that and said all would be fine if i produced insurance within 10 days)
needless to say when i contacted my insurance company requesting a letter outlineing the error they claimed the correct cert had being sent out!!
i was wrecked from all the phonecalls so in end i just paid up, anyone any similar experience?
when you insure your car/van for a year surely you know after the year that you have to renew it.youcant rely on insurance brokers or the company to remind.you need to be responsible for it just like your car tax.
