Car and Van Insurance With a DR61 – Drink Driving Insurance

What is a DR61 motor conviction and finding cheap insurance for it?

A DR61 means ‘refusing to give permission for analysis of a blood sample that was taken without consent due to incapacity in circumstances other than driving or attempting to drive’. It carries ten penalty points and stays on one’s licence for up to 11 years. After this time it doesn’t need to be disclosed to your motor insurer.

However until the conviction is spent you need to make sure your insurer knows about the conviction. If you don’t disclose it you run the risk of having your insurance cancelled, claims rejected and no return of money you have paid. With the development of the Claims and Underwriting Exchange (CUE), insurers have access to a database that enables them to find out about people’s claims and convictions. So don’t risk making this mistake since you will be caught out.
