Learning to drive is an exciting milestone, but navigating the complexities of car insurance for learner drivers can be daunting. Whether you’re seeking learner driver insurance for your own car or looking for affordable provisional insurance, understanding your options is crucial.

With Collingwood Learner Driver Insurance you can get that extra driving practice in your own car, or in a friend or family member’s car, with no risk to their policy. You can get insurance as a named driver, or get your own Learner Driver policy. Your own policy means that if you have an accident and you had to make a claim you wouldn’t endanger the vehicle owners No Claims Discount. Also, our Annual cover can start from as little as 64p/day*.
Providing there have been no accidents or incidents you have the opportunity to earn 1 years accelerated No Claims Bonus. This means, Collingwood will issue 1 years No Claims Bonus which can be accrued in 10 months rather than 12*.
Before you start to learn outside of a driving instructor’s car it’s important to understand that there are a few rules you must follow to stay on the right side of the law.
First, you will need your provisional licence, without that you will not be allowed to get behind the wheel of any car. If you don’t have a provisional already, head to the DVLA now to apply for your provisional licence. Next, you will need to apply some L plates, or D plates if you’re in Wales. Make sure you have one on the front and one on the back, that they are clearly visible and don’t obstruct your view.
The last rule is that until you have passed your practical driving test you must always have a supervising driver with you. You cannot, under any circumstances, drive alone.
