Fridge on gas on ferry

So I do not need insurance to drive legally on our roads?Show me the evidence of this. The fact is in the real world (which you seem not to inhabit) 99.9% of us take out insurance based on the fact that the Police prosecute you for not being insured, and it makes sense to do so to most drivers.
As another post suggests, just a wind up good fun though.
 
Try Googling it, this was the case when I did my CPC about 16 years ago. The GPO, armed forces,royal family etc, it's available to all who can finance it.

That is, maybe was, a fact, insurance is not obligatory is the point.
 
I accept that there are exceptions to the rule, (as I've previously intimated) just as there are in the payment of taxes etc everybody knows/accepts that, but it's what applies to the vast majority that matters and what we generally are talking about in everyday life, not arguing some silly semantics.
Anyway can you please tell me how I/ME can drive legally on our roads, seeing as I'm not in HMs Forces, I'm not a GPO employee,. I'm not Royal (although my brother's a bit of a Queen!).

Maybe I am missing the point but surely if the nice Ferryman has agreed to take you and your van all the way to Europe and he asks you to turn of your gas because he thinks that if you dont it may course huge losses of life, then we should just humour him or her and turn it off. Is this not basic good manners?
 
i cant ever remember being asked to turn off the fridge or turn off the gas. if i had then i would have turned it off . i do know the tunnel do a check . its easy to say lots of things but when as anybody been told. maybe you have missed the point . its not about arguing with them its just some of us have never been asked. the original question as been answered if some of you dont like the answers then so be it. do we answer the questions honestly or liei told the truth . truth is the only law.
 
if its of use to anyone we are members of the brittany ferries property owners club and if you use our membership number you will get 10% discount and we get a £10 voucher anyone interested let me know.
 
Perhaps the ferry staff don't tell you to turn off the gas because they expect you to use your common sense.

And because it's in the conditions of carriage.

Just because you don't read the contract terms doesn't mean you can choose to ignore them ...

So if you don't isolate the gas supply, you are in breach of contract and are liable to be sued. The amount for which you might be sued could include consequential loss and damages.
