Are you a young driver who needs short-term cover? Dayinsure’s cheap temporary car insurance for young drivers could be ideal. To get a quote, all you need is:
Young driver temporary insurance is a type of cover that allows the under 25’s to drive for short periods of time. It lets you get behind the wheel if you need to drive but don’t need a full annual policy.
You can take out temporary car insurance for young drivers on your own car or on someone else’s – for example, if you need to share the driving during a road trip or want to insure yourself on your parents’ car between university terms.
Dayinsure offers flexible and cheap short-term car insurance for young drivers that can cover you from one hour to 30 days, depending on your needs. What’s more, you can arrange a policy in a matter of minutes.
In car insurance, anyone under the age of 24 is classed as a ‘young driver’. In practice, all drivers under the age of 25 tend to face higher policy costs and drivers under the age of 21 are affected the worst. This is because insurance premiums are based on risk and less experienced drivers are seen as being riskier on the road.
According to statistics for 2021 released by the Department for Transport, younger car driver collisions accounted for 21% of all fatalities in car accidents. The most common contributory factors among young drivers were careless driving, losing control of their vehicles, and exceeding the speed limit.
Unfortunately, this kind of data means that taking out annual insurance on your own car, or being added as a named driver, can be unaffordable for many young drivers.
Yet getting temporary car insurance could offer a more affordable solution for young drivers, especially if you’re under the age of 21. Instead of paying a large sum to be insured year-round, short-term insurance lets you get cover as and when you need it.
Taking out young driver temporary insurance is also a better alternative to not driving at all. By driving periodically, you get to keep your driving skills sharp and your confidence high. This will put you in a better position when driving more often is affordable in the future.
You need to have insurance any time you drive. This means there are many times when you might need temporary insurance cover for young drivers, including:
