Long before the introduction of the automobile into the UK, there was an established licensing system requiring horse drawn vehicles to display a numbered plate. In 1896, there were only 20 cars on Britain's roads so it is not surprising that it took a few years for a licensing system to be implemented.

The Motor Car Act 1903 Official registering of UK automobiles commenced in 1904, after the Motor Car Act was passed in 1903. There were already some 5000 cars on Britain's roads. The Act required each Council to set up a Registration and Licensing Authority to register all vehicles in their catchment area, originally costing 20 shillings per vehicle. The rapid increase in popularity of the automobile led to the creation of the Ministry of Transport 1919. This was quickly followed by the Roads Act of 1920, requiring not only that all vehicles be registered with their regional Registration and Licensing Authority but also required car manufacturers, dealers and repair shops apply for a general licence, the forerunner of today's Trade Plates.

Home insurance provides coverage for homeowners against the risk of loss that may occur from damage, fire or theft. Home insurance rates look at the probability that a loss will occur based on the claims experience of the insured, who is the homeowner.

Home insurance uses individual underwriting standards to assess risk. Risk is the potential for a reduction in value that may occur. When a number of these occurrences happen for a particular insured, the insurance company either raises the rate or drops coverage. It is the hope of the insurance company to not have to pay claims and employ assessment factors to understand better the likelihood that a homeowner is exposed to loss and rates it accordingly.

Establishing auto insurance coverage for your automobiles is an important part of owning a vehicle and is a lawful requirement. When purchasing a vehicle, it is essential to set up insurance on the vehicle immediately before taking the vehicle on the open road. When looking at insurance policy details, you should be ready to give important information to the insurance agent to make sure the policy is tailored to your needs.

Different automobile owners may require different types of coverage. If you are purchasing a brand-new vehicle, you may want to include coverage that will help repair your vehicle in the event of a collision. Owners purchasing older vehicles may not care about repairs to their own vehicle and may only wish to provide coverage to repair the other vehicles involved in the accident.
