A spokesman for Warwickshire Police said: “We appreciate insurance is expensive for young drivers but is it worth the risk of a £300 fine, a minimum of £192 in recovery costs and having to re-take your driving test?”
It's illegal to drive a vehicle on a road or in a public place without at least third party insurance.
If the case goes to court you could get: an unlimited fine; disqualified from driving.
The police also have the power to seize, and in some cases, destroy the vehicle that’s being driven uninsured.
