Stopped by police for no insurance

Hi, pleading for any advice. I got a gift of new privates plates
a few weeks ago. Fast forward I never got round to telling
insurance and I’ve been stopped by police for having no
insurance. Thing is they checked both plates and no insurance
was found. They let me go with a notice to take within 7 days to
the station with proof of insurance. I have changed the new reg
over now. Also have proof of policy with both registration
played. What do I do now I can’t lose my licence 😞

What you do is take the policy into a police station as required
within 7 days.
I assume it shows insurance being held at the time of stop.
I've reported to mods so this should be moved to correct forum

The obvious question seems to be: did you have insurance at the
time you were stopped?

As above - get confirmation from your insurer that insurance was
in place and take to the police station as instructed.
BTW - no insurance is 6 points so unless you have 6+ currently
you won't lose your licence.
