A friend of mine was stopped whilst driving on a provisional unsupervised.?

Three weeks later he has received a letter in the post from his insurance company cancelling his policy as they have been notified of this incident. Is it normal for the police to do this? P.S They were not even given a producer. I would be grateful for any answers.
Answer:
Jolly good.
I hope he realises his mistake, is dealt with by the Magistrates for driving unsupervised and as the Insurance company has been notified via the electronic system, both he and others will understand that others who drive with all the legal authority and are insured will back the Authorities.

It was a good day when these automatic transmissions of data from roadside vans identified the abusers of vehicle law.
I hadn't heard of this before. I'm glad I'm not your friend when it comes to getting insured again, the premium is going to make his eyes water.
"P.S They were not even given a producer."

What do you mean by this?

Anyways to answer your question- your friend violated license restrictions. The insurance company wasn't "notified", rather a flag showed up on your friend's file which is monitored by his Insurance company's computers in order to keep tabs on raising or lowering his premium. Since his violation is based on restrictions to his license, it is a provisional license, and it was not a simple moving violation WHILE SUPERVISED- this is why his policy was cancelled.
They don't need a producer these days. MOT and insurance are online.
