Totting up insurance:

You've had several instances of receiving points on your licence, with 12 or more points meaning you could receive a totting up driving ban.


 3-9 penalty point insurance:

Saving you money on convicted driver car insurance

If you have received a conviction, it can be hard to find insurance that accepts convicted drivers. Some providers that do accept convictions have incredibly high quotes, which can mean it's too expensive to get behind the wheel again.


However, we know how important it is to be able to drive. For example, it may be essential for your job or for your family. Not being able to drive can put pressure on loved ones and family members and put livelihoods at risk. 


This is why First General work specifically to help convicted drivers to get back on the road with affordable insurance. What's more, we help to save you money on your insurance through schemes such as dashcam insurance. 

What is dashcam insurance?

A dashcam insurance policy can be a budget-friendly way to obtain insurance as a convicted driver. Sometimes this policy is known as convicted driver insurance. It is a great way to lower the risk and help drivers lower their premiums by improving car safety and promoting careful driving. 


An installed dashcam in the car can keep a record of any incidents. For example, it can prove invaluable should there be an accident and you need evidence that it wasn't your fault. It can also deter thieves and vandals, adding an extra layer of safety to your car. 


By installing a dashcam, insurers believe this lowers the risk and often offers much lower premiums on this insurance option. For convicted drivers, it is a great way to build up no claims and lower the cost of your insurance over time. 

Best ways to save money on your car insurance as a convicted driver

  • Choose a convicted driver specific insurance policy, such as dashcam insurance

  • Increase the voluntary excess by as much as you can comfortably afford to

  • Ensure your car is kept in a secure place most of the time

  • Opt for a vehicle that is in a lower insurance group

  • Attend speed awareness/rehabilitation courses 


Save time and hassle with First General, who will find the best deals to save you money on convicted driver insurance. 

Convictions we can cover

Our insurance options can cover a range of convictions. We work with a panel of specialist insurers to find the right option for your needs, but some of the convictions we can help with include:

​

  • Speeding convictions

  • Previous driving bans

  • Drink or drug-driving

  • Dangerous driving

  • Unspent convictions

  • Traffic offences

  • Unfit driving

  • Defective vehicle

  • Reckless driving

  • Totting up convictions

Choosing the right convicted driver insurance

At First General, we're here to help you find the right insurance cover for your needs. We often get asked about which level of cover is best for convicted drivers, third-party only, fully comprehensive or fire, theft and third party.
While the choice is up to you, it's important to remember that fully comprehensive can often work out to be the best value. Statistically, safer drivers will choose fully comprehensive insurance, which can mean the policy premiums are lower than third-party only. 


With First General, you can also receive a selection of quotes at different levels of cover to review your options. Whichever you choose, it is important to obtain insurance cover as driving without sufficient insurance could result in another conviction.
