The Motor Insurer’s Bureau (MIB) has revealed that the number of motorists driving on the UK roads without insurance has decreased from last year by 20 per cent. Last year, the figure for uninsured drivers was 1.8 million as compared to 1.5 million of the current year.
Some of the areas in the UK that have the largest number of uninsured motorists include Greater Manchester, BD3, B10, M12, B12, West Yorkshire and Bradford. The research revealed that about 160 people are killed in accidents caused by uninsured drivers and 23,000 people suffer minor to severe injuries.
The insurance companies are obliged to pay about £500 million annually for people suffering because of uninsured drivers. This annual bill affects the cost of the car insurance premium for the insured car owners.
