How much does it cost to add another driver to my car insurance?

I share a car with my friend/roommate. I think it makes sense to get us both on one insurance plan and split the cost. How much does it cost to add another driver to my car insurance?

There is no standard price for adding another driver to your
car insurance
, so you will need to contact your insurance provider to get an exact quote.
The amount you pay will depend on a number of factors, including:
  • Your insurance company
  • Your friend’s driving record
  • Your friend’s age
If your friend has a history of safe driving, there’s a good chance that you won’t have to pay extra to add them to your policy. However, adding a higher-risk driver will likely make your premium go up.
If you’re unhappy with your policy’s price hike after adding a driver, use insurance broker
