How to Check If the Driver That Has Just Hit You is Insured Or Not
In the UK it isn't compulsory for a car driver to carry any ID or insurance documents. If stopped by the police, the driver has five days in which to 'produce' his details at the nearest police station.

But now there is a way of checking if the car is insured even if you can't check on the specific driver.
