Rising Cost of Motor Insurance: Discussion

11:00 am

Mr. Conor Faughnan:

No. Again, I believe if we had the regulator involved, it would be helpful. That information is sitting somewhere. Every time one drives past a Garda car, his dashboard should go “Ping”. There is no good reason that this is not the case. The windscreen discs are actually counting against this. They are actually facilitating fraud. We have more fraud because we have windscreen discs. We are kidding ourselves with windscreen discs to demonstrate a car is insured. It is actually causing uninsured driving.
