    Hi , I have a question about driving of other cars on my liberty insurance policy, I was reading the handbook and under the driving of other cars criteria it says that the car must be roadworthy(nct'd) , but it doesnt mention tax? So I want to know if I would be still covered if this car has nct but doesnt have tax?

    Generally yes, but you would need to clarify that with your insurer.

    It is an offence to drive a vehicle that is not taxed.

    If you're caught driving it you can be prosecuted, and if the tax is out over 2 months, the car can be impounded.

    Tax and insurance are two very different things. You simply cannot legally drive any car without it being taxed. Your insurance cover is a different thing altogether.

    If you have any doubt just phone your insurer and ask. It a simple enough thing to do.
