Adding Young, Old or Inexperienced Drivers As Named Driver: How Much Do I Have To Pay and What Is The Excess Applicable?

There is no additional premium imposed for an unnamed driver in this category to drive your car.

Often, most insurers will not want you to add a young, old or inexperienced driver into the policy. However if you are allowed to, additional premium is required. This may range from a couple hundred to almost a thousand dollars.

All insurers impose additional excess (usually between $1,500 to $3,000) for young, old or inexperienced drivers who wish to make claims under your policy.

The typical definition of a young, old or inexperienced driver is as follows:

a. Young drivers: Below 27 years old
b. Elderly drivers: Above 65 years old
c. Inexperienced drivers: Less than 2 years driving experience (with respect to license pass date)

Please note that the figures above differ from insurer to insurer.
