Do I need to add occasional drivers to my policy?

We cover anyone who drives your car, even if you haven't listed them on your policy.1

However, the excess payable may be affected if a driver isn’t listed.

  • An additional excess (known as an undisclosed driver excess) applies where a driver is 25 years of age or older and is not listed on your policy
  • A higher additional excess (known as an undisclosed driver age excess) applies if the unlisted driver is under 25 years of age
  • You won't have to pay either of these additional excesses if the driver is listed on your policy.

Special note for learner drivers:

You don't need to list learner drivers on your policy. Instead, we base any excess related to a claim when the vehicle was driven by a learner driver on the excess of the supervising driver. This excess may be higher if the supervising driver is not listed on your policy.
