It has been just over two months since our only boy has been learning to drive and we’ve worked out that if he wants to get his provisional licence in the 12th month, he’ll need to be driving at least 3 hours a week to do his 120 (minimum) hours of driving.

I rung our auto insurance company this week to make sure that he was covered while he is at the wheel and I got told that my insurance company does not insurance people under the age of 18. So because DD15 will be going for her learner’s permit next year and we’ll have two young drivers in the household, I thought it would probably be better to do a bit of car insurance comparison and find a different insurance company that is going to insure my teenage drivers.

I’m a bit annoyed because the reason we went with this company was because it was the cheapest which means that when we change we’re going to be paying more regardless who we go with.

But I guess it’s only until my teenagers get a job….and then they can pay for their own car insurance! Oh, and get their own cars too so they’re not wanting to take mine all the time!
