    When you can tax your vehicle on line and you get reminders there is no excuse for having an untaxed vehicle.

    I think the lack of money trumps that.

    And if you can’t afford to run a car or pay the £200-£300 to get it released, get on your bike or use the bus.

    Hm, interesting, are there insurance programs which can cover clamping cases? I believe there are no but it's better to check it out. By the way, there are so many interesting aspects related to car insurance. For example, on this webpage https://www.cheapautoinsurance.com/a...er-tire-damage you can figure out if car insurance covers tire damage or not.
