Do you have to tell your auto insurance when your teenager gets a permit?

While your teen is learning to drive, be sure to inform your auto insurance company that you have a "permitted driver" (meaning they have their permit, but not their license) in your household.

This means that your permitted driver will be allowed to drive a vehicle listed for your household, as long as a parent or guardian is in the passenger seat. Your policy will not be financially impacted until he or she becomes a licensed driver, so make sure he or she has been added to your policy.
