Car and Van Insurance with a DD30

What is a DD30 and why is insurance so expensive?

If you’ve been caught driving in a dangerous manner in the past you’ll know how difficult it is to find affordable car insurance. Most insurers won’t offer to quote, those that do will charge an enormous amount. But why is this? Too many insurers are quick to label and stereotype, they don’t think you can learn from your mistakes and expect you to trip up again.

It’s not fair but that’s the reality within the insurance market. So what is a DD30? A DD30 motor conviction simply means reckless driving or dangerous driving. The number of penalty points will depend on the circumstances – if the driver was drunk or there were other repercussions such as death or injury to a third party, then a DD30 can lead to both a driving ban and maybe even a prison sentence.

Other conviction codes within this endorsement category include DD10 (driving in a dangerous manner), DD20 (driving at a dangerous speed), DD40 (driving in a dangerous manner at a dangerous speed or recklessly), DD50 (causing death by dangerous driving) DD60 (manslaughter or culpable homicide while driving a vehicle), DD70 (causing death by reckless driving), DD80 (causing death by dangerous driving).

If the circumtances are severe enough or if previous motor convictions have been accumulated, then the driver might also receive a TT99 (also known as XX99) which is a totting up ban and disqualifies the driver for exceeding 12 or more penalty points (or 6 for drivers with less than 2 years experience).
