legal issues

[conpants]

im doing my cbt on friday it runs from 8:45 till 4:30

..

my bike has a MOT and i will be licenced
i am going to apply for insurance tomorrow, but im worried as to wether my insurance cover note will come in time for friday to tax the vechical, also i dont have my V5 back

... will i be able to get away with this for say 1 night??

[Shaun]

No.

No

In a nutshell, I very much doubt that your postman will deliver a cover note, give you time to get to the post office, and then to your training for 8:45 am.

Hire a bike from the school.

I also doubt they will train you on a dodgy bike.

Fine for off road stuff, but not on the street later.

Also, how did you plan on gettng the bike to the school without CBT, tax and insurance?

[carvell]

CBT bloke will simply refuse to take you on the road without tax, as he'd get a rollocking off the police if you are caught.

If you want a CBT, don't try it, if you don't, try it.

i dont mean for the cbt .. im hiring a scooter from them i mean when i wanna go out in the evening and have a little ride about

half the scoots round here are untaxed and uninsured. the thing is friday eveneing is the only chance i will get of riding, as i am workng all saturday 6 am start ..

So wait until Sunday

Sods law will get you caught, seriously not worth the risk.
And relying on the cover note arriving is a stupid thing. Mine was promised next day, eventually got it 10 days later

Best holding up the urge until you're legal. <dad-mode>If those other peds/bikes ran off a cliff would you do the same?</dad-mode>

HOWEVER ...

The cover note, when it does come, should have covered you from the moment you paid the premium, and therefore if you arrange it by phone with a credit card, it technically covers you from the moment the transaction goes thru on their machine and is accepted.

You could try and talk the insurance company into faxing (or couriering ) you a copy (at great expense if you don't live near them, admittedly).

But I am not so sure that the post office would accept a fax copy of a cover note when you applied for the tax disc. And if you dont have the log book yet either ...

Best wait till you have the proper paperwork. The CBT company wont mind moving your appointment till you have your paperwork in order (or hire a bike from them). Bit of a nuisance that you have to wait, though.

Don't get it??

You don't need your insurance cover note for your CBT as your hiring a bike.

You reckon the note will turn up friday...... so go do your cbt, go home, get your cover note and then you can go to post office and get tax etc?

CBT won't take you all day as far as I remember
