Drivers may be concerned after reading recent press coverage suggesting that drivers who make non-essential journeys during lockdown will not be covered if they need to make an insurance claim. Reading these alarming headlines online, or in the paper, may be particularly scary for young drivers, many of whom are holding insurance for the first time. This rumour is categorically not true!
As a specialist in young driver insurance, we think it's particularly important to let our customers know that their cover is not affected during this time. All drivers are covered for the purposes specified on their policy - this means that should you make a non-essential journey you will not invalidate your cover.
Of course, you should follow the government restrictions as they are in place for a good reason.
