Does auto insurance cover permissive drivers without a license?
I’m trying to understand my auto insurance policy. If someone I allowed to use my vehicle for training purposes doesn’t have a license or permit, would they be covered under permissive use for liability or property damage?
Specifically:
• Where in a standard policy should I look for information about coverage for drivers who aren’t licensed?
• Have you seen situations like this covered, or are they typically excluded?
• Also, in situations where minor property damage occurs, would you file a claim immediately or wait for an estimate first?
I have Property Protection / collision coverage, and I’m trying to get a sense of how policies handle this before speaking to my agent.
