    Default car insurance

    Hi everyone,

    I am looking for a bit of advice! I am currently insured as a named driver on my husbands policy but I would like to start taking the children in the car.
    Is it acceptable to have business insurance added as a named driver or will I need my own policy? I am with Tesco if that makes any difference?

    Thank you

    I would ring your insurers and ask but l would think that if the car was insured for business use, which shouldn't increase your premium, and they know that you are driving it for your business it would be ok.

    Not sure about for tesco but with admiral I am main driver and my husband is named driver on the 'big' car and vice versa on the 'little' and for both I am insured to drive for childminding business. So, they are happy for the named driver to use the car fro business. It didn't increase the premium, but I did pay an admin fee.
    Give them a ring and check.
