   Depends on the relationship or lack of it. A wife (in Britain) does not affect insurance much at all but beware, you may find a friend may be insured but only third party when driving your car, yes even if it is Fully Comp.A Fully Comprehensive insured driver will only be covered for third party when driving someone else's car.

   It depends on the driver and how much experience they have, as the price of adding a second driver could increase or even decrease the insurance price. You should try comparing your insurance using comparison sites. Try theycompare.co.uk, confused.com etc Source(s): http://www.theycompare.co.uk

   (like that Freudian slip; 'bother' for 'brother'-mine too) adding an inexperienced driver does add to the premium; if he can add you as occasional it will be less. It will decrease as you gain experience, if you don't get tickets, of course. have him call his agent.

   Adding a new driver to a policy (as opposed to an experienced driver) will increase the cost of the premium. Insurers regard all new drivers, regardless of age, as high risk. So the premium will go up.

   Could add loads or maybe not much and until you ring the company for a quote you will absolutely no idea. Your brother will have to make the call as they will not discuss it with anyone but the policyholder.

   Every time I've added a second driver the insurance premium has gone down not up. Try a car comparison site and add a second driver. They nearly all drop the premium

   No matter where you are, if you a new driver the premium will go up due to inexperience. The first 3 years are the highest. Source(s): Claims Adjuster 18yrs

   The only way you are going to find out is by getting your brother to ask the insurance company. If I was your brother i would refuse anyway

    speak to the insurance company they will let you know it depends on age number of claims points on licence etc

    It depends upon the age. A teenager will raise it.

    Some companies do and some don't.

    depends on age and how long you have been a driver for
