Motorists paying €175 to cover accidents caused by uninsured drivers

The Road Traffic and Roads Bill would allow gardaí to check if the driver is insured just by scanning their licence plate number.
Motorists have paid €175 each to cover incidents caused by uninsured drivers in the last five years.
There have been over 10,000 claims linked to uninsured drivers since 2018, according to new figures released by the Motor Insurers’ Bureau of Ireland (MIBI).
