PeeWee Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 as long as the car is owned & insured by someone other than yourself you will be fine but as mentioned only 3rd party.Your policy should read something like, insured to drive any other car not belonging to you third party only as long as its insured by the named driver.

Apnea Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Be very careful with this. My friend had a policy with Quinn, were it said under he could drive any class B veachle with the owners permission or something. Apon being pulled over he was told very different.

Charley Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 My brother was with Quinn Direct and he thought he was insured 3rd party on any other vehicle but when I looked through his paperwork very carefully there is actually a paragraph which said this was exempt on his policy although they didn't make this very clear and it was easily missed. Quinn told him on the phone that he was covered several times but refused to confirm this in writing or send an amended certificate out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
