    Wrong Forum really. I dont know of any (if there are any) Waterford only insurance companies. There all national.

    Try looking in the Motors forum for advise.

    to be honest it shouldnt be on the forum at all. if your mate got caught drink driving he shouldnt be aloud back on the road EVER.. my personal opinion and i also think your wrong to be condoning him getting back on the road in looking for him.. leave him look for his own insurance.. and hopefully for societies sake he wont get any..

    A LICENCE IS A PRIVELAGE NOT A RIGHT.

    To be fair, we all make mistakes. I assume he has learned from them and will drive responsibly in the future. Ill move this over to Motors, as I don't see the point in having this conversation here.

    Motor Mods:- If you feel differently, feel free to move it back.

    plenty of companys will cover him, but its gonna cost, his best bet is to ring a broker, or break out the yellow pages and ring around.

    i dont make mistakes that could prove FATAL either to me or others. selfish is what i call it . speaking professionally as a firefighter i cut people like this from cars and just love it when they get caught .

    lifetime ban.. the only answer

    Will you ever happen to make a post without mentioning what you do for a living. I dont recall you been so public about you occupation when you worked out in Garrett or when when you were a Traffic warden.

    We all get the message that you are now a Fireman.
