Cevap
The learner driver must be covered by a valid insurance policy for that specific vehicle.
Under UK road traffic law, any vehicle driven on a public road must be covered by valid insurance that specifically covers the person driving. During private practice, the provisional licence holder is the active driver and must have an insurance policy (such as a provisional learner policy or named driver cover) that authorizes them to drive that specific car. The supervisor does not need to be insured on the vehicle unless they take over driving.
