Hi All,
This is a query for someone with in depth knowledge of motor insurance legislation. It’s information will however be of use to a Joe Soap motorist.
In simple terms, under the 4th EU Directive, an insured EU motorist is entitled to cross any border within the EU and will automatically be covered (by his/her insurer) to the minimum legal insurance cover required in that country, with no obligation to notify his/her insurer.
Can anyone tell me if the same would apply if you’re driving someone else’s car on your driving of other cars extension. (ie I take your car with your permission and drive it around the EU on my DOC extenstion. Am I covered?)
If you know what exact wording in the directive covers this, that would also be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
