Often this can be a very difficult task as it might require you to add a new driver on to your policy or alternatively be added onto someone else's policy. Because you don't have to apply to an existing insurance provider you do not have to wait for a certificate or a cover note to arrive through the post. The majority of temp cover policies can be applied for quickly and an insurance certificate can be printed off immediately. This can give you great peace of mind as you embark on your journey in your borrowed vehicle.
