Navigate – the new home of the former Motor Insurance Database (MID)
On 30 April 2024 Navigate became the new home for data previously held in the Motor Insurance Database (MID). The same, central record of all insured vehicles in the UK in a new, secure cloud data platform. Navigate is managed by the MIB and used by Insurers, the Police and the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) to enforce motor insurance laws.
Ensuring that vehicles driven on our roads are insured at all times
MIB shares Navigate data with the DVLA to identify uninsured vehicles under the Continuous Insurance Enforcement (CIE) scheme. Enforcement agencies and the police also use Navigate data to tackle uninsured driving. They have the power to remove uninsured vehicles from UK roads.
