Is it true that if u have no road fund licence your insurance is invalid even with regards to a third party?
Answers:
Afraid so no tax no insurance, which only makes it more annoying when you have a collision with one of them!
If they have no road tax but are not parked on the street then there is nothing they can do.
If they have no driving licence and are not on the road then again, there is nothing they can do.
Someone with a licence who is insured to drive that car can drive it legally.
No-one can drive the car if there is no road tax at all.
I hope that clarifies this for you!
If your insurance becomes invalid for any reason such as no road tax or lying on your application the insurance company still have a responsiblity to pay out to the third party. I am unsure if the insurance company would then look to recover this money from the individual, but hopefully a big fine will push these selfish people into paying into the system like everybody else has to
you are not insured unless you full road tax 3 rd party or not
They are not insured.
If a person drives illegally, they cannot be insured to do so.
Report them directly to the DVLA.
The DVLA website doesn't say that people's insurance is invalid if the vehicle is untaxed. Although if it doesn't have an MOT it won't be insured. It is very likely that the kind of person who doesn't bother to buy a tax disc is also driving round without a driving license, insurance or MOT, because you need to show your insurance and MOT certificate to get a tax disc.
If you see a vehicle without a tax disc report it to the DVLA on 0800 0325 202 or using the form here http://forms.dvla.gov.uk/public/unlic_ve.
even if it isn't parked on a road if the owner hasn't notified the DVLA it is off road they are still liable for a fine nowadays. I find it very odd the DVLA isn't interested just because the vehicle is registered at another address, that is their job after all. If they continue to show lack of concern tell them you'll be writing to your MP, that might spur them into action.
You could also try your local council if the vehicles are on a road. Ours (Waltham Forest) will tow away and crush any vehicle that isn't taxed and is left on a street. Yours may well do the same.
If either your tax or mot runs out or your licence becomes invalid then your insurance is invalidated. If caught driving under these circumstances then you will be charged with driving without tax, mot or insurance.
The DVLA can issue fines by mail, which it says it does automatically if you do not either pay your tax or declare your car off road. Of course, if enough fines go unpaid the car can be confiscated and crushed.
Finally, if these "scum" are too tight to pay for tax and mot, their cars are probably unroadworthy and they wouldn't be able to get insurance, as you have to provide these documents to get it.
Any person injured by one of these drivers would have to claim from the Motor Insurers' Bureau.
Reporting an untaxed vehicle:

youre all wrong, even the coppers. you can drive a motor vehicle with no MOT and no roadfund licence, and your insurance is perfectly valid.. the exception is to have it booked in for an MOT.
and, theres no restriction on the distance you may travel for the MOT.
i know because i got stopped on teh M1, in derbyshire on my 1100cc yamaha..with no tax or mot. and no prosecution. id booked it in in coventry.
know the law..
if the police can do nothing, i think that if the person has a accident, and causes injury they should be done for manslaughter.and the injured party claim from the injures board
yes if your car is not legal (not taxed) your not insured
The insurance would only cover them if the vehicle was kept off road and a sorn declaration to dvla to confirm that, so if on the road it would be void !Of course you couild torch their non taxed cars then they would get nowt.
