Once your vehicle has been officially suspended, you are no longer obliged to meet statutory requirements such as motor vehicle tax, third-party insurance, and MOT obligations. Please note that while your vehicle is suspended, it is prohibited from being driven or parked on public roads. We recommend that you park the vehicle in a private garage or similar facility. Further information regarding the suspension process is available on the RDW website. </p><p>As a result, there is no requirement to insure your suspended vehicle. You may temporarily discontinue your ING Car Insurance by telephone on 020 22 888 88.
