how traffic offence situation cause HSMC extn

[onkarpathre]

Dear All

Last year i was caught while driving the car with incorrect insurance policy. This one is traffic offence situation. For this offence i paid 200 pound fixed penalty and 6 point on my driving license by police. After couple of month i redo my driving exam and Test i got mu driving license back.
Now i am due to apply for my HSMP Extension under tier 1 general category. I am eligible for applying extension with 90 points.
My Question is would this traffic offence will have any affects on my further extn application? I am due to apply for my extension in few months and would this affect that? Do i need to delcare the offence in the application form?

please advise ?

Thanks

Youshould post this again in the forum called "UK Tier 1 (general) visas" to get the best chance of a quick response.

Why did you not have insurance? Was it because you were still driving on your home country's licence?

When this traffic offence occur, I had a full UK license and I was an add on insurance holder on my brother insurance policy. Due to misinterpretation of the statement of insurance policy that mention on the insurance paper, i thought, can drive third party car.
