In my experience they dont want to look at them, they give you a 7 day wonder anyway.

Technically it is illegal not to carry your docs with you, but the old bill tell u not to. How contradictive is that I would never carry mine, fooked if the car gets nicked, infact, I think I've lost everything now you mention it

When I first had a Cossie I used to keep them on me as I was always getting tugged especially living where I lived at the time

Anyway I get a tug by a female copper whos got a right cob on trying to do me ( without success I might add ) for anything she could

She gives up and says Ive got to produce ............ " No hang on my documents are in the car I can show you them now " was my reply

Oh no you can fucking produce for wasting my time she replys

I didnt bother producing and it went to court

When I explained what happened the Magistrate went fookin barmy at the copper and threatened to write to her station Chief Constable

Fucking Bitch deserved it ..................... hope she got demoted

i got told never to show docs on the side of the road as if the copper has had a bad day he can see if you have points and then pick things out so you get more

If you got your documents on you mate and they still want you to produce then they need a bloody good reason

99% of them wont even bother if you got docs on you but the 1% that have the right hump might try and if they do then dont produce and get the wanker in proper bother

I just assumed you couldnt produce at the side of the road because when you produce at a Police station they fill out loads of forms to confirm your docs are legit, and an Officer at the side of the road wouldnt have time to fill out the forms

No thats not how it works

They fill one page out with your details , they record your driver number and driver entitlements from your license and when its valid too and from

From your insurance they record policy number , name of broker and valid from/to dates

From the MOT they record serial number , testing station number name of testing station and again valid from dates .

A police officer can check this out at the side of the road

Do they carry the forms round with them to take all the details then? (ie: driver number, insurance policy number, mot cert serial number etc....)

well i never carry me docs on me as now days they know all about ya before they tugg ya unless ya driving ya missus car, then they just ask me what insurance i git, i tell em and they then fook off, when i was driving the 1300 in my name the fookers would tug me and due to my "few" points they look for things to do me with

hence why all the cars are now in the missus name, also helps if i ever get a camera flash me as all my misus has gotta say is she aint got a clue who it is and they force the points on her

infact i dont carry any ID on me tbh and that causes problems as they have the right to arrest ya untill they prove who ya are , almost got done for that in my own fooking flat as she puts all documents in a safe place that not even i know about

How do they verify if the details are correct then if they dont record the details?

Dont get me wrong, if what you're saying is true then fair enough, I have no idea whether it is or not, it just doesnt seem to make sense to me.
When you produce at a station, I was under the impression they record the details and the form is then sent to Admin to verify the details are correct / policy exists?

No they are only recorded so the issuing officer who gave you the producer can check with your nominated station that you have got the neccesary documents required to drive the car legally

Yep they not interested in the paper work. they just try to find something wrong so they can give you a fixed penalty. with me it always for not wearing my seat belt.

I don't use a wallet or anything so I don't tend to carry my driving license at all unless I am going somewhere I might need it... ie Clubbing ID

My insurance, MOT and V5 are tucked away in a file with all of my receipts and stuff for car
