Young 17 year old has been driving since June 2026 she is a full time student who works part time at a racing yard riding horses. Young insurance policies do not appear to like the fact she is a horse rider and student and has a high annual mileage. Unfortunately a HGV lorry went in the side of her and now she can not get an insurance for a Polo 1.2 litre for under £7K how can a 17 year old afford this? What and how do I get her insured she has been threaten to have her insurance cancelled twice already

Can she get black box insurance?

Why are they threatening to cancel? I’d change the car as a starter to a 1.0 non fashionable one.

An HGV! That must have been so scary. I hope she's alright.
