Test Centre Update
With the continuing ease of lockdown, we thought we would share the latest update from the DVLA website with regards to dates for tuition and tests:
|

So whilst there may be light at the end of the tunnel for learner drivers, it is going to take some months to get through the back log.
We have seen a continual surge in policy sales, with Learner Drivers looking to maintain the experience they have already gained behind the wheel. As such we have noticed during lockdown the average policy period has jumped from 12 weeks to 20 weeks cover.
Green Card Update
Great news for brokers in Northern Ireland, we have just this week agreed with insurers that for no extra cost you will be able to issue a Green Card as standard with every Learner Driver policy sold.
