Docs on of Dick Green
If a policeman stops you and asks to see your insurance documents, and does NOT give you any written piece of paper to ask you to take them along to the local police station, but, asks you to 'pop in' with them to the station, are you under any lawful obligation to do so? Also, is there a time limit if you decided to 'pop in' with the documents?
