Temporary Cover to Share the Driving

Temporary Car Insurance can be used for many reasons, but one of its most helpful uses is to enable you to share the driving, on long trips or in the event that one person is not feeling up to driving. 

If you are on a journey with family, friends or colleagues and suddenly the driver is feeling quite tired or unwell and needs a break that can mean frustratingly slow progress towards your destination. Especially if no one else in the car is covered to drive that vehicle. This is where temporary cover can save the day, quickly getting yourself or another passenger on cover to take over the driving, allowing the driver a rest and letting you share the driving. In just a few minutes and from the passenger seat, you can complete the process of buying the temporary insurance and have your documents emailed over to you, enabling you to share the driving.

Reasons You Might Need Temp Insurance to Share the Driving

These are some of the most common events where temporary insurance might be very useful to help you share the driving:

1. The driver is feeling tired or unwell

If the driver is feeling tired or unwell it can be very dangerous to continue the journey, and it can be frustrating to stop until they are feeling better. Temporary cover allows you to get the insurance coverage you need, to help complete that journey and let the driver rest.

2. Long Trips or Holidays

If you are on a long trip or holiday it can be very difficult and draining for one person to do all the driving. But if you are not insured to drive the car you might think there is no alternative. Wrong. With temporary car insurance you can quickly get the cover you need, online on your phone from the passenger seat, so you can share the rest of the burden of driving for the trip or holiday.

3. Adding a Named Driver is too expensive or difficult

If you know you are doing a long journey or trip you might have already considered adding a named driver to your policy to share the driving. But this is not always so easy. Adding a named driver to an annual policy can take a long time waiting on hold, giving lots of information and details of everyone’s driving history over the phone for hours only to discover that your insurance premium is going to jump up hundreds of pounds for the luxury. If you only actually need the cover to be for a few days or weeks the much cheaper and easier option would be to take out temporary car insurance, with an online provider like InsureDaily.

Driving can be fun, but life can be unpredictable. For those times when you suddenly find yourself needing to share the driving and to give the designated driver a break, temporary car insurance is the best solution.
