Nearly one in five young drivers are reportedly using the illegal “fronting” method
Young drivers and their parents are being warned around a common method that they believe is saving them hundreds every year on car insurance. However, the reality is this trick could cost them thousands of pounds and potentially put homes at risk.
Known as “fronting” this trick is worryingly common despite the devastating consequences it can have. This often happens when well-meaning parents want to help keep costs low for their children as they start their adult life, allowing themselves to be put down as the main driver of their child’s car..
This offence holds fines worth hundreds of pounds, prosecution and potentially even an automatic driving ban. Having this mark on their record will also force them to face higher insurance costs in the future even when they're old enough to not be classed as high risk. This research also comes shortly after a rise in the number of uninsured young motorists was reported, which has more than doubled in the last two years. Experts noted this is likely due to the skyrocketing costs of insurance premiums for young people.
