Car Insurance for New Drivers

New and young drivers in the UK typically face higher car insurance premiums than more experienced drivers. Insurers price policies based on risk, and with no driving history to go on, new drivers are statistically more likely to be involved in an accident in their first year on the road.

What affects the cost

Your age, the car you drive, where you live, your annual mileage, and whether you add a more experienced named driver can all affect your premium. Black box (telematics) policies, which monitor driving behaviour, can also bring costs down for careful drivers.
