MB & DLM, I’d say, are stricter than most. Over 30 days. I guess it’s down to the terms of the fleet insurance.
It’s pretty standard practice in the industry that. If you were disqualified for 12 months or over for serious offences. You’ll likely not be able to lease or hire a car until the conviction is spent, often 5 years after the ban ends. If you drive as a career, then the odds are you won’t find any employment as a driver, until they actually spent.
If it’s under 12 months, you might find some companies will and others won’t
Private Insurance is likely also to be very costly. Some companies may not offer cover till after 5 years or until the convictions are actually spent. Which can be up to 10/11 years for the most serious convictions.
