Answer: Possibly. For genuinely occasional driving, a separate short-term policy may avoid changing an annual policy permanently.
Young-driver age limits and minimum licence periods vary between providers.
If the temporary policy is separate from the parent’s cover, check how a claim would affect the owner’s no-claims position.

Permission to use the car and the provider’s vehicle rules still apply.
