I only heard a little of the programme, but what I did hear sounded relatively balanced and sensible. As to third party insurance, no, not that I am aware of(!)
I have to wonder, what risk is it exactly that I should be insured against? Any minor damage to other vehicles I'm sure could be successfully wrested from me via a small claims court, and any serious personal injury to a third party is statistically so unlikely as to be not worth insuring I'd have thought? (Unless you are an insurance company shareholder who smells some safe profit of course).
