Do you mean that if you're stopped by the police in (say) France on a UK registered bike /car can they check "online" that you're taxed, insured and MOT'd in the same way that UK police can here? I don't know but my guess would be that they can't at present so they'd want to see a valid paper insurance document at least. If they can then knowing that would have saved me tearing the house apart when I couldn't find my printed insurance cert last month.
They can't (or don't) follow up on speed camera flashes for UK visitors at the moment but I know there are moves afoot to change that in the fairly near future and you'll be getting virtual points on (actually off ) your licence.
