Is your car undrivable?

If your car won’t start after the damage, you need to call a towing service to have it transported to the nearest workshop or to Krókur if the damage occurred in the capital area.

You can call a towing service yourself or seek assistance from Árekstur.is or the police if they are called to the scene.

If the car is at Krókur for a longer or shorter period of time, you can take off the license plates to save on insurance fees and vehicle taxes.

When the vehicle’s license plates are taken off, you must inform us via email or phone, and we will cancel the insurance from the date Samgöngustofa receives the plates.

Verna does not cancel insurance if the vehicle is deregistered with just a "note." The license plates must be removed from the vehicle for the insurance to be canceled. You can find more details on the Samgöngustofa website.
