Would it be worthwhile to get the view of insurance companies? If people are fraudulently saying they can drive because they have full licences, the insurance companies will have a lot of evidence. Perhaps they can provide statistics on those who have been caught improperly claiming to have insurance when they have no licence. Is there an issue in that regard? Would it make sense, data protection law permitting, if all convictions in court or penalty points applied were notified automatically to the insurer?
