ProvisionalDriver
For parents

Help them practise without guessing about cover

Compare adding the learner to the existing policy with separate learner cover, then check the claims and supervisor consequences properly.

Start with two genuine quotes

Ask the car owner’s existing insurer about adding a provisional driver. Then compare separate learner cover for the same car and dates.

Questions worth asking

  • Must the car keep its existing annual policy?
  • Who is insured to take over driving?
  • How would a claim affect the owner’s no-claims discount and renewal?
  • Does cover end immediately when the learner passes?
  • What fees or refunds apply if the test date changes?
