How dare people try to earn a bit more cash during these times of austerity!
People are entitled to do what they want to put food on the table but if that means undercutting others or weakening job security or risking your job by ignoring security regulations and health&safety then you have to grow up and accept the repercussions of that and not cry about it or blame someone else when it all goes pear-shaped.

Do you have business insurance? Has RM given you permission to do this?

Doesnt need any extra insurance if he is covered by RMs insurance bond, in fact the whole you need business insuarnce when using your car is a myth as its not the correct type of business insurance you would be getting, you would actually need a policy from your insurance company which allows the carrying of mail, not just "ordinary" business insurance and that type of policy costs a fortune

Royal Mail's bond is only third party it doesn't cover any damage to your own vehicle and you do have to inform your own insurance company what you are using your car for and they provide the correct insurance for your needs
