The Motor Insurance Database (MID) is a central database which keeps a record of all insured vehicles in the UK and is managed by
Experian on behalf of the Motor Insurance Bureau (MIB). The data which is kept may be used by Insurers, Police and DVLA for the purposes of
Insurance/Law Enforcement.
The purpose of the MID for Enforcement Agencies and the police is to tackle uninsured drivers on the road. If a vehicle is uninsured on a UK road, they have the power to remove this vehicle.
