Overview
A household that operates more than one vehicle and includes more than one licensed driver creates a more complex risk profile. Educational material in this category addresses how household composition influences premium calculations and household-wide liability exposure.
Coverage Considerations
Topics include multi-vehicle discounts, listing every household member of driving age, the difference between named insured and permissive use, the role of umbrella liability, and rated versus excluded drivers.
Common Terminology
Named insured, household resident, permissive use, excluded driver, umbrella policy, and stacked uninsured motorist coverage are common terms in household policies.
Questions for a Licensed Agent
Ask how your carrier rates newly licensed household members, whether an umbrella policy makes sense given your household assets, and how to handle a vehicle used occasionally by a non-household member.
