The Law relating to helmets

Would this traffic offence invalidate his insurance.

 

Possibly not, but he will need to tell them as his premium will very likely go up. By this Summer, it will all be visible to insurance companies digitally from DVLA, so he won't be able to hide it from them.

 

Is there any way I can find out if any action was taken against him

 

I don't speak to them.

 

Put the registration of the bike through ASKMID and see if it has insurance.

 

that costs £4

 

would it be illegal to put a short video of him doing this on here

 

cough.......am I not anonymous now?

 

the police rang today, they say they cant issue an OSCO because the police officer was not there and did not see the rider, riding without a helmet, so that's it.

 

theres this beautiful thing called a section 59. they could very easily give him one of those. antisocial riding .... had one on my first scooter for a year.. made me think twice about doing stupid things like that again... might stop him.

 

I did say that he would get away with it, I cant see it going any further,

what is a section 59.

 

I just found this, a police officer posted this on their forum,
In practice I rarely give a S.59 warning to someone unless I have witnessed the driving myself

so, as it wasn't witnessed by the police we are back where we started, he gets away with it,

 

Post it on here or Youtube then.

 

Sorry merlin, I'm not quite sure I understand, please advise me.
