Make sure if you hand keys to a third party they have insurance, otherwise they cannot be in charge on a public place and could get done by cops.

A link to prove that point will be a long time coming.

Holding keys doesn't automatically mean you are in charge, although it probably does if you are sitting behind the wheel.

I've done it a few times at my local Mark, leave the keys with the landlord and sleep in the van - saves me a taxi home after a very late night!

I'm sure that he couldn't be done for being drunk in charge of my vehicle whilst he's in his bed in the pub!

You surely wouldn't give keys to a third party who was in the same vehicle ?

So if I give someone a spare key to my house, they have to have insurance covering my house?

They are just in charge of the keys. Not the vehicle/house the keys fit.

I stayed outside the RAFA club in St Neots for a late party Chris. The car park was full so I stayed outside on the street and left the keys with the landlord.

I was parked 50 yards from the Police Station!
