Can plod see everyone who is insured on a policy through ANPR. 
 

e.g. if I’m the main driver and I have my partner on the policy as a named driver, can they see that another person is insured?

Hi.

 

Is this connected with your other thread this week please?

Police have direct access to the Motor Insurance Database [MID]. I don't think ANPR cameras access the MID directly, an actual human being police person has to look it up.

 

I believe the MID records the registration number and details of every insured vehicle in the UK including who the permitted drivers are but the MID website doesn't comment on it specifically.. The information is put on the MID by insurance companies.

it used to be a case of producing a HORT1 (horty) 7 days wonder notice to prove you were insured, 

thats mostly gone now.

 

plod can now check yes.
