Can I drive someone else’s car on my car insurance policy in uk

To be able to drive someone else's car, you definitely require a ‘DOC’ (’driving other cars’) However, it is not necessary for a DOC to always be included in your policy, as some providers don't even provide you with the option.

You can get to face various situations, where you'll have to drive someone else's car, e.g your car is at the workshop and you need to reach somewhere in an emergency, so you borrow your friend’s car or let's say, a friend in an emergency urgently needs someone for their car to be driven home and they ask you. So these are situations are such where you don't have another option but to drive someone else's car, however, such situations are likely to get you into trouble, as you may come up with a satisfying thought of owning fully extensive insurance, which gives you the allowance to drive any car. Unfortunately, making that cruise in your friend’s car illegal.
