Car and home insurance FAQs
Car insurance FAQs
A regular driver is the person who drives the vehicle most often in any monthly period. Our premiums are charged based on the profile of the regular driver, meaning if a different driver from the one noted on the premium is considered the regular driver, then the monthly premium is incorrect and will not be covered.
For example, if a ‘regular driver’ (45-year-old) lets a driver (18-year-old) drive their vehicle to university daily without notifying us, we will charge a premium based on the profile of the ‘regular driver’ (45-year-old) rather than on the profile of the 18-year-old driver. This simply means we are receiving an incorrect premium, therefore, the vehicle is not covered. If the ‘regular driver’ changes, make sure you notify us immediately for continuous cover.
