This is fantastic news! This new unified fraud technology platform is a significant development for @theIFB as it builds on its #ForwardTogether#Strategy, which will undoubtedly bring more value to members while supporting the needs of the wider market.
Find out more below.
We're excited to announce we'll be launching a new unified fraud technology platform to transform the insurance industry's fight against fraud in 2026, in partnership with @shiftechnology 1/2
Great to see @AvivaUK highlighting the issue of #fronting on #CarInsurance.
Many young people don't realise fronting is a crime, which makes #awareness key. @TheIFB is collaborating closely with insurers and the public, to help more people avoid the pitfalls of #ApplicationFraud
At MIB, we see the terrible cost of #UninsuredDriving every day. People requiring life-long care. A life lost every week. Let’s make it stop. #OpDriveInsured24
Around 26,000 people are hit by uninsured and hit-and-run drivers each year.
As part of #OpDriveInsured24, we’re supporting our police colleagues to keep these dangerous motorists off the roads.

For those trying to hide behind flimsy excuses whilst knowingly flouting the law, it's bad news.
Our work with police, and the data we hold, means there is #NowhereToHide when #DrivingUninsured - these excuses won't be accepted, your vehicle will be seized and you will be fined.
It's on you to ensure a vehicle you drive has valid insurance for the journey, purpose & driver - no matter who owns it. During #OpDriveInsured24, we're hearing the same old excuses! These end with the vehicle being seized & a fine.
Don't be next: https://t.co/Antau0MOjg
If you're not adequately insured, there's nowhere to hide. #OpDriveInsured24 is just one way we're making sure that you're more likely to be caught now, than ever.
Our work with police focuses on taking dangerous uninsured vehicles off the road. However, we know there are a number of insurance pitfalls that otherwise law-abiding motorists may fall foul of.
Don't take the risk, check your insurance now: https://t.co/yNQ3mc2kKR

#OpDriveInsured24
We want to make stories like this a thing of the past, which means putting a complete end to uninsured and hit-and-run driving.
That's why we run Operation Drive Insured every year to make our roads safer.
#OpDriveInsured24#weareMIB
Ian was lucky, his collision with an uninsured lorry resulted in relatively minor injuries. Many are not so fortunate, with 1 person on average dying each week due to uninsured & hit-and-run drivers.
Hear from Ian: https://t.co/jj7IJRIrfg
#OpDriveInsured24 week has begun - just one of the many ways in which we're working to eradicate uninsured driving from our roads.
Check whether you are insured for free: https://t.co/yNQ3mc2kKR
Today marks the start of #OpDriveInsured24, a week-long national road safety campaign cracking down on uninsured drivers.
Is your vehicle showing as insured? Check for free: https://t.co/jldkcPupP5
I'm looking forward to seeing the positive impact #OpDriveInsured24 makes.
We'll be joining police forces across the UK to offer support during roadside operations, as well as raising awareness about the impact #UninsuredDriving has and driving positive behavioural change.
Every 20 minutes, someone is hit by an uninsured or hit-and-run driver - a life changed forever.
That's why Operation Drive Insured is back next week. With our police colleagues, we're leading this national week of action to target uninsured drivers.
#OpDriveInsured24
It was great to join Adam Winslow, CEO at @DLGroupMedia, at an Industry and Parliament Trust dinner on "Driving Costs Down: Navigating the Rise in UK Motor Premiums." Lots of great discussions and questions expertly facilitated by @SallyJameson, MP for Doncaster Central.
We continued to roll-out our operations along major UK motorways, collaborating with @PoliceScotland yesterday on the M8. By dedicating resource and utilising MIB data to tackle uninsured driving, the initiative is sure to make roads and communities along the corridor safer.
Operation M8 has seen @PoliceScotland tackling #UninsuredDriving along the M8 today. The third in a series of one-day operations across UK motorways led by MIB has seen xx vehicles #seized so far today, with over 1/3 uncovering secondary offences. (1/2)

It was great to see our police colleagues at the National Tutelage Symposium yesterday to discuss our work to tackle uninsured driving on our roads. Every twenty minutes, another victim. Let’s make it stop. Read my remarks in full here: https://t.co/KPeXvt7bKx
Thank you to all our police colleagues who joined us at the National Tutelage Symposium yesterday. It was a valuable opportunity to discuss new ideas to protect people from uninsured driving on our roads. Read the full update here: https://t.co/29PcxjeIxX
It was great to be at the National Tutelage Symposium today to speak with our police colleagues about our achievements, the shared challenges we face, and why we must continue to find new ways to reduce uninsured driving on our roads. Read my remarks here:

MIB’s enforcement team joined police colleagues at the National Tutelage Symposium today, where our Chief Services Officer, @InsuranceJamesD and National Enforcement Manager, @PaulFarleyMIB, spoke about new initiatives to tackle uninsured driving. https://t.co/29PcxjeIxX
It’s always great to hear from our police colleagues about their work with MIB to protect people from becoming victims of uninsured driving. By working with insurers and roadside officers, our police helpline removes any doubt about whether a driver is insured.
#WeAreMIB
The MIB Police Helpline helps the police quickly identify whether a vehicle is insured. If there’s any doubt, we’ll work with insurers to check the information a driver has provided. If they are found to be uninsured, their vehicle will be seized and potentially crushed.
Great to see @theIFB and @CityPoliceIFED launch a joint campaign to raise awareness of dangerous moped fraudsters. These scams are widespread in #London, but by highlighting the issue we hope to protect more road users. Find out more below. #MopedScam#CrashforCash
We're urging the public to be vigilant of #CrashforCash moped scammers, who are deliberately crashing into cars to make bogus insurance claims. Over 4,000 people have been targeted, and the scam is on the rise in #Croydon and #SouthWestLondon. https://t.co/a3cXbsW1Ry #MopedScam
Victims of #uninsured and hit-and-run driving should not have to experience the devastation caused by these reckless drivers. It is also hugely unfair to those who are insured, who effectively have to pay through higher premiums to cover all the claims made to MIB #DriveInsured
We know supporting victims of uninsured & hit-and-run driving only addresses the problem when it’s too late. That's why our goal is to end uninsured driving for good. Each year, we provide compensation to around 35,000 victims, costing £350 million. #DriveInsured
Following the success of #OpScalis with @WMPolice, the initiative will be rolled out to 8 more police forces over the remainder of 2024.
This is just one more way that we’re making sure those flouting the law have nowhere to hide #DriveInsured
We're delighted to be expanding #OpScalis. Our support enables 8 more forces to dedicate officer time to tackle #UninsuredDriving.
@WestYorksPolice@EssexPoliceUK have already begun their activity, with more forces to join in late summer and autumn.

It's great to see @theIFB raising awareness of #Fronting on #CarInsurance. Fronting is often seen as an innocent way to save money on car cover, but it actually leaves countless people driving uninsured and facing criminal consequences! Find out how it works in the link below.
Did you know? There's a popular #CarInsurance 'hack' known as #Fronting which makes insurance cheaper, but most people don't realise it's #Fraud and has massive consequences! Find out how to avoid it and get legit tips to save money on your insurance at https://t.co/DAbhM5W7zt
The requirement to have continuous, appropriate insurance applies to every vehicle using our roads, whatever the vehicles value. Whilst some drivers believe themselves to be exempt from the law, we'll continue working to ensure that there is #NowhereToHide
This is an important reminder for anyone who wrongly believes driving uninsured is worth the risk. While the cost of insurance is challenging for many people, there are still plenty of ways to get the right policy at the right price.
John (not his real name) wrongly thought driving uninsured was an easy way to save some money. That’s until he seriously injured two people, went to prison and came out with a bill for £200,000 for legal costs and compensation. Don’t risk it. #DriveInsured.
