Most forces now take the car off drivers who don't have insurance or a license so as well as the punishment the courts can hand out (not always a fine, a visit to her majesties bed and breakfast isn't unknown for repeat offenders) you have to pay recovery and storage costs for the car.
Plus if your face or numberplate gets known (and it will) you would soon find a lot more 'random' checks being done to ensure everything is in order document wise.
