Car parked only - is insurance needed?

[RogerS]

Does a car need insurance if it is only parked on the road and not driven?

Yes - any vehicle kept on the public highway requires tax and insurance (3rd party only by law)

Also - mine was parked when a taxi driver ran into it and wrote it off. Ok, I got some cash back (nowhere near what it cost to replace) from his insurance company, but it was a load easier to do it through mine.
