You may not be aware that you can get daily car insurance, it is a way to insure yourself to drive for a day or a few days at a time without the need for a full policy. It is an ideal way to get insured quickly when you need to drive a car that you are not insured to drive at short notice.
This type of insurance allows you to buy a policy that will last just one day or you can get cover up to a total of 28 days. This is only meant to be a temporary form of car insurance to allow yourself to get insured to drive either a car or a van that you are not normally insured to drive. Whilst this is a useful and convenient way to buy insurance there are however a few limitations to this type of cover, notably the minimum age requirement of 21 years.
Providers of daily car insurance currently only provide policies to customers who are at least 21 years of age. This minimum age requirement was put in place as the cost of insuring under 21's was too prohibitive.
There is an alternative to 1 day car insurance for under 21 year olds in the form of a monthly pay as you go car insurance. This allows you to buy car insurance for a month at a time with a minimum of 1 months commitment. Although this may be longer than you require insurance for it is currently the only short term insurance available to under 21 year olds.
You can obtain a pay as you go policy online and it is available to drivers as young as 17 years old. Once you have paid for your policy it becomes active straight away making it a drive away policy. You can print off your documentation from your home printer to take with you.
