Motor Insurance Data Base.

• As a motor trader if you purchase a vehicle and have not sold the vehicle within 7 days then you need to register the vehicle with the Motor Insurance Data Base.
• This is to register the fact the vehicle is in your possession and is insured through your motor trade policy.
• If the police run the registration number through the data base it will show that you have registered the vehicle and that you are legally insured to drive it.
• This will stop any administration or inconvenience should they have to stop you to produce documents to show you have the cover as a trader as the vehicle will be registered to the previous owner.
• The Policyholder must register the vehicles as being in their possession within 14 days of ownership on the MID. For further information as to rule and regulation please visit the MID website.
