I am the main driver of a car which is parked at my address. Should it be registered in my name?

Question:
My husband and I separated last December. The registration document is in his name at my address as it has not been changed. If I am the policy holder, should I be the registered keeper as I am the main user? I use it 90% of the time and he has is 10% when he takes the children out. Would my insurance be invalid if I have an accident and should I get the registration document transferred to his new address? Do my insurers need to know that we've separated and he no longer lives with me? So many questions - sorry!!

Answers:

In NC I got ticket for not coming to a complete stop when turning right on red. Will this affect my insurance

The DVLA advise that the registered keeper should be the person who has the responsibility of the day to day use of the vehicle on the road. So, yes. But if the insurance is in your name as main driver, you would be covered - though you should tell your insurers that you are no longer cohabiting as it might invalidate HIS cover, if it is you plus spouse (though until you're divorced you're probably okay).

3rd Party insurance?

If you use the car most of the time then yes, it should be you who is the policy holder. It shouldn't affect anything which happens when you crash, but in many cases if they find out the main user is not the policy holder but a named driver, there can be fairly serious/expensive consequences. Speak to your insurance company - also the insurance cost can change depending on who the named drivers vs policy holders are, so you might save money!

license key how i get it?

Your insurance would not be invalid. The reason for this is that the car is kept at the address it is insured at and as you are the main driver your insurance premium is rated on this already. A car can have the registration document in your husbands name as the owner of the car but this does not mean he has to be the main user. I own 2 cars both in my name but one is used purely by my partner and i am not on the insurance for that car at all but as the insurance is rated on the driver, location it is usually kept at and the use of the vehicle it makes no difference.

The DVLC never issued the number P155 OFF what other numbers have they not issued?

the registered owner does not have to be the keeper of the vehicle. (see your V5 document). as long as you are on the insurance policy you are covered.

how to construct a binding contract with a friend?

I agree, you're fine. BUT if you read your policy you will see something where you signed that says "I will tell you about things that happen that change my circumstances in any way" in lawyer talk. I would let them know about the separation to be safe, otherwise they could say you didn't live up to the terms of your policy and not cover you when they should. Try to keep things civil for the sake of the children of course, and good luck.
