Compare Young Driver Insurance

If you’ve passed your test and got a car, you will now be on the hunt for cheap first time Car insurance for young drivers, and you will soon find that it might not be easy to find a cheap quote that offers everything you need.

The best thing you can do is compare Young Driver insurance policies, but before you start looking at quotes, you may want to compare what levels of cover are available. The most basic, and the minimum legal requirement, is Third Party Only; this covers any third party’s costs in the event you are found at fault for an accident with them. The next level of cover is Third Party, Fire & Theft which covers the same as Third Party Only but also covers your vehicle in the event of fire or theft. It may cover additional damages to your car, but this can often differ between insurers. The highest level of basic cover is Comprehensive which usually covers everything already mentioned, plus cover for damage to your own vehicle. In addition, Breakdown cover, Windscreen cover and Motor Legal Protection can also be included or added on to Young Driver insurance policies. All of this is what you should be looking at when you compare Young Drivers car insurance.

You might also want to compare a Young Driver Black Box insurance policy against standard Car insurance, to see which suits you best.

Once you have decided what you want from your Young Driver Car insurance policy then you need to compare different providers of Car insurance for young drivers, to see what they offer and how much they charge. One way of doing this is through a comparison site.

One of the potential pitfalls with comparing young driver insurance online is that sometimes the quotes provided are based on certain assumptions, and because a website cannot speak to you to understand your requirements in the same was as a person can on the end of a phone, they won’t necessarily provide you with all of the different aspects of cover you need.

Likewise, there may be certain restrictions or conditions on the policies which, due to the nature of the comparison sites, there is not enough room to warn you about. As such, you could end up going ahead with a policy based on the low price online, but could find yourself without the cover you wanted, or limited to restrictions and curfews.

What’s more, you may actually find that you are missing out on some better deals from some of the Young Driver insurance specialists who don’t provide quotes online as they prefer to speak to you in person to understand exactly what it is you’re after, and provide a tailored quote that matches your needs.
