The type of convicted driver insurance you need depends on various factors, such as the nature of your conviction and your driving requirements. We offer two main types of cover:

  • Third-Party Only: Provides cover for damages and injuries to third parties involved in an accident with you. It does not cover damages to your vehicle.

I purchased some Gap Insurance through Duncan at Riviera for my new BMW M440!
I am absolutely delighted with the service I received and also the price I paid, BMW quoted me a figure that was 5 times higher than the amount I paid Riviera for effectively the same product. So for anyone looking for Gap cover all I can say is give Duncan a ring and you won't be disappointed !!

I have found Riviera Insurance brokers to provide a good quality and professional service. I have used them for some two years now for insurance on my buy to let properties and they have always sought and found the most competitive policies for me to ensure that I don't spend over the odds on the insurance I am forced to purchase. I would highly recommend the service as well as the professional way they deal with me as their customer.

Frequently asked questions

Convicted driver insurance is a type of car insurance specifically designed for individuals who have a history of driving convictions, such as speeding tickets, Driving Under the Influence (DUIs), or other traffic offences.

Anyone with a driving conviction on their record may require convicted driver insurance. If you’ve been convicted of a driving offence, standard car insurance providers may consider you a higher risk, making it challenging to obtain regular insurance at an affordable rate.

Various driving convictions can impact your insurance premium, including speeding tickets, reckless driving, Driving Under the Influence (DUIs), driving without insurance, driving with a suspended license, and more.

Yes, you can still obtain convicted driver insurance even if you have multiple driving convictions. However, the number and severity of convictions might affect the availability and cost of insurance cover.

The duration for which driving convictions stay on your record varies by jurisdiction and the severity of the offence. In most places, convictions typically stay on your record for several years before they are removed.

Convicted driver insurance is generally more expensive than regular car insurance due to the increased risk associated with drivers who have previous convictions.

Convictions are usually automatically removed from your driving record after a certain period, depending on local laws. Trying to remove convictions prematurely is not advisable and may lead to legal consequences. It’s best to focus on improving your driving record over time.

While convicted driver insurance can be costly, some strategies may help reduce the premium, such as taking advanced driving courses, opting for a higher excess (deductible), or choosing a less powerful or lower-value vehicle.

Big enough to save, small enough to care.
