Car Insurance
« on: »
Hello, I hope you can help with my question about motor insurance please.  My partner is a named driver on my car policy.  It was just for emergency use as she was not keen on driving and rarely did.  Sadly she has now passed away.  The insurance company will charge a fee to make a mid term change to the policy. So my question is, am I legally required to remove her name from the policy if I am the main driver?  Or is it OK to wait until normal renewal time?

Thanks.

Sorry to hear that.

There is no obligation to remove your partner's name mid-term in this situation, nor to notify insurers of her death. Do nothing until renewal and make the change then. There's is no need to explain why you are taking her name off the policy at renewal.
