The effect of the judgment is that any vehicle that falls within the Motor Insurance Directives\u2019 definition of a vehicle should have a compulsory motor insurance policy. The definition of vehicle in the Directives is very wide.<\/p> <\/p> We are working closely with insurers, and others to identify how the ruling in the Vnuk case should be applied to a range of vehicles, including mobility scooters. We will shortly be meeting with relevant stakeholders to discuss the particular issues that apply to those using mobility scooters. We will, of course, consult before making any changes and we are determined to get a sensible outcome.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> <\/p>"}
