In our last post, we talked about the idea of “fronting” and younger drivers being a named driver on their insurance policy and their parent as the main driver, even though the younger driver is in fact the main driver of the vehicle. This of course is illegal and according to research carried out recently, 40% of parents involved in fronting incidents, know that it is illegal. More shockingly though is that 60% of parents would do the action again.

It is possible to get cheaper insurance for young drivers but it will naturally be higher at first but as the years of no claims build, their insurance premium will get lower. The worst case scenario for being caught fronting is prosecution and fraud.
