    You had to produce your details before (and therefore know the requirements) and are wondering, given a recent incident, if you could get away without producing. Are you missing something (e.g. insurance)?

    Essentially you will be convicted for not having them. e.g. driving with no tax, licence, insurance, nct, etc etc.

    You really don't want that.

    I have no issue with declaring documents as I have done before, the question arises because the instruction is issued verbally at the side of the road, with a station nominated etc, I have no official written record of what was requested or the time frame in which to do so, which would seem to be a very grey legal area I would of thought.

    Am no
    You were requested to produce all relevant documents within 10 days
    So if there all in order not a problem

    If not then you shouldn’t be on the road
    It should only take 20 min to deal with it
