Auto Insurance Coverage for Student Drivers - When Your Teen Is Learning

For student drivers just learning how to navigate their vehicle, the risks are high. It is important to have auto insurance for your child as soon as he or she is behind the wheel. This is the best way to safeguard your child should an accident occur. When you add them depends on several things. Most importantly, be sure any vehicle your child drives has ample coverage. Let's investigate this topic a little more closely. 

Insurance Follows the Car 

Your son or daughter will need auto insurance. It is a requirement in most states to have a policy if you are behind the wheel. However, as your child is learning, you may not need a policy in place just yet.  woman in car with license

Still, any vehicle your son or daughter drives should have coverage on it. Let’s say your son is learning to drive in your car. You have a comprehensive car insurance plan on your car. If your son is in an accident, your policy will pay for the losses in most cases. 

To get a driver’s license, your son or daughter will likely need to have auto insurance in place. You will need to add them to your policy or secure a new one before this occurs. 

Tips for Securing a New Plan Affordably 

It costs a significant amount of money to insure a young driver. They lack experience. Young men can also be more aggressive behind the wheel.  

As a result, car insurance for teens can be significantly more expensive. To save money once you decide to add him or her onto your policy, consider these tips: 

  • Use a parent’s policy. Adding a teen driver onto an existing policy as a new driver is ideal. You will pay less for coverage if you add a new driver instead of securing a new policy. 

  • Ensure your child’s grades stay up. Students with A's and B's may qualify for a discount on auto insurance. Ask your insurer about this opportunity. 

  • Rates will fall as your student gains experience, but this depends on his or her ability to keep a clean record. Encourage students to follow the rules.         

Do not put off getting car insurance for your student driver. Even while he or she is learning, it helps to have adequate coverage in place to minimize financial loss. This will ensure your teen driver has protection in case an accident occurs.
