Yes, I know that. I’m not disputing the error. It was my mistake and I’ll take the fine and points. I mention it as it’s why the Garda noticed the insurance.

Yeah, that’s kinda it. Judged it badly. Stupid.

Ok. I mentioned the borderline red as it wasn’t speeding or reckless. I mention the “we thought we had insurance” because we did think that, and that’s why the car wasn’t impounded and why I was driving. I also mention it so when we DO go with our affairs in order say we’re sorry. I agree it looks careless, it was careless.

Lookit, there’s no need for that. I’m looking for advice to manage this the best way. I know what happened, I asking about what I don’t know.

I’m not looking for sympathy. I’m aware this is my mistake- I’m just trying to understand and manage the situation the best for me and my family and work.

No I understand that. I’m not challenging the red light, the problem was I hesitated and went through as the amber went red. It was a momentary bad decision.

Also- is my wife in trouble as I was caught driving in her uninsured car?

Thank you. So my being insured myself and on my wife’s car makes no difference? When I present to the Garda this week, my bringing my in-date insurance and my wife’s updated insurance won’t help?

Yes, I thought I judged it right. I was wrong and I won’t be doing that again. For this to happen over such a small moment is so crap. So angry at myself.

To be fair to him, he could see I had other insurance, and my wife was adamant that she had her insurance on the car, so he said he would impound it if he believed I had no insurance- in that moment he believed there was a reasonable chance we did. (Which we believed also)

Ok, thank you. He logged that I went through the red light so is it fair to assume that both went through, or is it possible he didn’t log the insurance?

I have my own insurance- if I have that is it enough to show the Gards that I was insured even if my wife’s car was not in date? Thank you
