Alright folks,

Just renewed my car insurance with Tesco.

Even after my driving ban and still having a provisional as not yet resat my test it says i can drive any other vehicle.

I take it this means i can put L plates on my "mum's" cosworth then and drive it

 

seems a bit strange, and imo quite shocking to think that potentially someone who isnt a very competent driver can go around insuring a 1.1 and driving something with good power

And you know the situation of me losing my liscence how exactly for you to call me stupid!

Obviously with 10 years driving experience, 7 of them behind the wheel of a ford RS turbocharged model including my 350bhp Escort Cosworth and years of track driving experience i'm far from incompetent!

 

sorry i was just stating the obvious, as most people dont lose their license over nothing do they

Im not saying you PERSONALLY are incompetent, i said potentially!

just that it seems quite ridiculous that an insurer would let anyone who has been banned and not even passed to drive any vehicle they please

I thought that on a provisional you license you are ONLY insured on the car you are learning to drive in?

And have someone over 25 with 5 years on car licence to sit with you.

 

Just aslong as it deffo says you can drive any other car you don't want to be pulled for no insurance on a provisional not good!!!!!

 

Also most "driving other car" policy is 3rd party ONLY.

So if you crash it, you pay for it out of your own pocket!

 

21 and 4 years last time I looked.

third party or not, its te damage to other people that makes it serious! Again I dont want to comment on the circumstances of the OP, but if tesco are allowing ANYONE on a provisional to drive other cars thats shocking!

 

Thanks.

 

Saying that with bell.com you can choose it as an option i'm 19 no ncb and its only £40 extra. My mates with them and that means he can drive his dad's scooby if he wants hes the same age as me.

 

I have a flexibell policy at 21 which comes in very handy indeed, but Im not on a green license lol!
