Insurance Association welcomes TV campaign crackdown

The British Insurance Brokers’ Association (BIBA) has welcomed the television campaign due to be launched today by the Motor Insurers’ Bureau to tackle uninsured driving.
 
The TV campaign will raise awareness of the government’s crackdown on uninsured drivers, which will affect motorists from June 20, 2011, making it is an offence to keep an uninsured vehicle, rather than just to drive when uninsured.
 
Graeme Trudgill, BIBA Head of Corporate Affairs, said: “The enforcement of the new law is a bold move to tackle uninsured driving and will make the roads safer. The TV campaign is a welcome insurance industry initiative that will help raise awareness of the new law.
 
“BIBA is delighted to have been involved in the biggest change to motor insurance law since the second world war, so today is a big step forward for the industry and for road safety.”
 
Motorists looking for insurance and information, specifically those struggling to find insurance, can call the BIBA Find a Broker helpline on 08709-501790 to find a specialist insurance broker or BIBA’s Find a Broker website.
