- Insurance that covers the learner to drive that carCorrect
- Only the supervisor needs to be insured
- A house insurance policy is enough
Why?
A learner must be insured to drive the car they practise in, just like any other driver. This can be their own learner insurance or being added to the car owner's policy. Driving with no valid insurance is against the law. Insurance is a required document in Annex 3 of The Highway Code.
