Convicted Driver Insurance
Ultimately, it will depend on the provider whether they want to insure you or not, especially as some offences will be viewed as considerably more serious than others. An insurer may be comfortable insuring someone with a single speeding offence in a long history of driving, or even a criminal conviction that’s not related to driving.
That said, the cost of your premiums will generally be higher than you might expect. This is simply because it introduces an element of risk that insurers will be wary of. Providing cover for a driver who has previously been convicted raises doubt among insurers, as well as raising the possibility that the driver could offend again if they’re not careful.
Additionally, if you’ve been disqualified from driving or been given a motoring ban for a set period, you won’t be able to get an insurance policy at all until you’re permitted to drive again. Even after you’ve served your ban, you may well find that insurers will quote you quite highly, so it’s important to bear this in mind.
