Home › Family and friends › Can Two Different Friends Take Out Temporary Insurance on the Same Car on the Same Day?
Answer: Possibly. Each driver would normally need valid cover for the exact period they drive.
Do not assume one friend’s certificate covers the other person.
If one policy ends as another begins, check the handover times carefully so nobody drives in a gap.
Each insurer can assess the drivers separately, so one person may qualify while another does not.

BriefCover.co.uk does not recommend a particular policy. Check the insurer's eligibility rules, permitted use, exclusions and excess before buying.
