Insurance conundrum

Post by Nigel »

So my previous insurance expired at midnight, my current insurance started at 00.01, what happens if you have an accident in that minute?
Stop riding for a minute or have an accident, lie and claim off old insurance before midnight, or lie and claim off new insurance after 00.01?
Discuss :D

Midnight runs from 00:00:00 to 00:00:59 I think.

Also at what point does not feeding a Mogwai after midnight become OK for the next day? Is it from midnight till bedtime or does it last until dawn?
And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

There is no gap.
Midnight is 24.00 or 12.00 or 00.00
writtn to the nearest minute .

Written to the nearest second ..
Midnight is 24.00.00 or 12.00.00 or 00.00.00

So 24.00 also covers 24.00.59 but is expressed to the nearest minute. but must include all the seconds up to 24.
01

00.00 includes all the seconds and parts of seconds right up to 00.01 which is one whole minute after midnight

Best thing is to claim off old insurance, if bike is written off you have to pay again to insure the replacement with new insure :o
