Courtesy Cars

[donsrno1]

When you usually get a courtesy car as a result of a crash, is everyone who was insured on the other car (crashed one) covered on the courtesy car usually?

I'm just wondering as my dad had a crash at the weekend and his car is in being fixed at the moment. My 1.4 is just out of it's MOT as well so at the moment I don't have a car I can use, unless I'm covered on the courtesy car but I'm not sure as I'm only a named driver on my dads insurance. I'll phone in the morning to find out, but just wanted to see if anyone knew what usually happens?

Thanks.

Unless they have added you specifically to that car (thru the hire company) then you most likely wouldnt be!

Check the paper work they gave you for the car, alternativly as you say a quick call will sort it out.

yeah, I don't think I am but should I be, as a named driver on the crashed car, if I asked to be added would you think? It's just that it would really help me if I had the other car to use when my old man wasn't using it as I had just planned to use his this week as I knew the MOT was about to run out on mine.
