Cheap 17 Year Old Car Insurance
Reader question:
Can you let a 17 year old drive your car even if they aren’t included on your car insurance policy?

It depends on your situation, Margeret.
I’d like to know under what circumstances the teenager is driving your car. First of all, does the teenager live with you, is he or she your child, etc.? If the teenager is considered part of your household, that is to say, if they live with you, then you should add them to your policy as soon as they get their driver’s license. This means a big hike in the price of your auto insurance premium for the 17 year old car insurance coverage, but it is much better than what the repercussions would be if the 17 year old ever had to make a claim and had not been listed on the policy.
Everybody who is driving has to have motor vehicle insurance. If the 17 year old does not live with you, then yes, that kid will be covered if he or she drives your car, because any friends or relatives who drive your vehicle are covered, regardless of age. So if you little your little brother borrow your car to run an errand, he will be covered.
