I ask that question only because in the ether there is a suggestion that people were always trying to ensure that the car was insured in terms of the impact of the penalty on the other side. That, for many people, was a priority. The tax might often lag. I am, therefore, surprised if that is the control MIBI has used. Could there in fact be a greater number not insured because of those that are not taxed at all? Was any effort made to identify cars that are neither taxed nor insured?
