AskMID (a bit OT)

Valid question, he may want to sleeve some red and black he found in a suspects shed.

Before the database you could just print any old s**te off on a computer and pass it off as an insurance certificate at a police station after getting a producer.

The "certificate" was never checked other than by the woman behind the desk who only noted the name, address and valid dates of the certificate.

Before I was able to get insurance to drive in eastern europe I always used to print off a certificate to keep the Slovakian, Czech and Polish police and border gaurds happy.

I was not in trouble. In fact they were quite pleased to see the CCTV footage as it showed that no-one had come to my house or indeed walked down the street from the moment the incident occured to the police arriving.

They were searching the wrong area.

Why would anyone need to sleeve cables that power a socket (apart from the earth)?

Many also opt for the "pay monthly" option for car insurance and stop paying the monthly instalments once they have a certificate. The idiots don't realise that the insurance company cancel the policy and remove the vehicle from the database.
