Re: Swiss number plates

@jdiebdhidbsusbvwbsidnsoskebid "why in the UK, the vehicle must be insured when in a public place, not the person." Not sure that is correct and certainly was not the case when I was younger.

In my youth I had a Norwich Union Rider (motorcycles) policy. I was insured for any motorcycle I owned and also covered 3rd party fire and theft for any motorcycle that I was using with the owners consent. I had that policy for 12 years. Before they stopped offering the policy due to it not being profitable enough for them.

Also they did not know what motorcycles I owned, you did not have to register the motorcycles with them. I could just buy a motorcycle and I was insured for it.
