My DS has just received his Provisional Licence and is due to have his first driving lesson this weekend. I have agreed that I will insure him on my car (at vast expense ) and take him out to practise. I've just ring my insurance company and been told that they won't insure any drivers under the age of 18, so I have found an alternative company who will insure. However, my insurance is up for renewal in 8 weeks time. If swap insurers now, I'll have to pay a cancellation fee, which I wont if I wait 8 weeks. DS will have one (2 hour) lesson a week so is it better to cancel the insurance in the next couple of weeks and take out new policy, so he can start practising, or wait 8 weeks but eh won;t be able to practise in my car. I had thought he's need 3 or 4 lessons until he was read to come out with me anyway. WWYD?
