Question:
I would like to know whether an individual who plead guilty for driving without a car insurance (UK) get his name put on criminal record list.
It seems to me unlikely because people normally get points of their licenses and a fine.

Car Insurance?
yes, it comes under a criminal offence not a civil or motoring offence, the mandatory penalty is 6-8 ppoints (used to be 4-8 but it went up a few years ago. your driving licencse will be endorsed with the points and a code of IN10 will be put on it, the insurance companies will then increase your premium (cos thats just how they are) you will also be fined, when you go to court they will give you a yellow A4 form which is a means testing form which will then be secretly given to the magistrates, who will work out the fine based on what disposable income you have or 'money left over to yourself' , but dont worry you've got time to fill it in when you sit around waiting when u get there. for gods sake make sure you list all your expenses, debts, outgoings etc, you can also have more money going out than you have coming in and have a negative amount showing, theres nothing wrong with that. ask the duty solicitor when you get to court to represent you but he cant advise you how to fill in the form 'in your best interests' you will have to decide what to put down. take a calculator, a piece of paper and a pencil. things that count are tv license, rent, mortgage, elec, phone, gas, community charge, clothes, food, telephone, general living expenses like that, be smart your fine will be low, be an idiot and say you live at home with your mum, have no real outgoings but earm plenty and they'll take all you've got. look in the local newspapers in the 'court-round up' bit every local paper has a list of who was in court, then look you'll see lots of people with the same convictions eg IN10 no insurance but different amounts of fines (this is because some people know what to put down on the form and how to present it. start making a list tonite. Even though i've tried to help you, please, please get some insurance its important because even if your a safe respectable driver there are other people on the roads who aren't and if you have a knock it'll all be your fault, by the way a second charge of driving with no insurance will be a manadtory ban, at 12 points its game over you do the maths, its sometimes met with a suspended jail sentence too, dont do it to yourself, we all know insurance is the biggest rip off going but they'll so cane your *** without it. In the mean time dont worry, buy the local newspaper, make your income as low as you can and your outgoings as high as you can and ask for the duty solicitor when you get there. good luck by the way a cheap car insurance site i found was called screentrade.com or co.uk. good luck and dont worry, just get things right from now on :)
I only have one license plate in california?
in answer to your question it is a criminal offence but under the rehabilitaion of offenders act after 5 years its considered a spent conviction. its nothing to be ashamed of, it won't harm your career etc. by the way im 100% right on everything ive said above. You'll probably get some negative comments about driving with no insurance, but whats happened has happened. what you must do is learn that you mustnt do it again, stay away from the edge of the law and everything will be OK, just so you know - the cops have an instant data base of car reg numbers that are uninsured, when they drive past you their computer will bleep either if their is something wrong ie mot expired, no tax, no insurance or your number plate is unreadable - just so you know. good luck and stay legal next time

Cheap goods in transit van insurance?
i do hope that you do! because all of us idiots that are paying for it are subsidising the cretins that dont thanks to their accidents and the people that are killed. insurance is mandatory unless you have sufficient funds to be able to carry your own risk, this i doubt in your case as you could not even afford the insurance. Twat i hope they throw the book at you.
