How do insurers know of fronting?
Fronting will most likely be discovered when a claim is made. If it is the named driver who is involved in a collision, for example, an insurance provider may launch an investigation. Should the insurer conclude that fronting has occurred, it may refuse to pay for any damage.
How do insurance companies know who the main driver is?
The most straightforward way to determine the main driver of a car is to ask yourself who drives it the most. That person should be identified as the main driver on any insurance policy. If, for example, you drive to and from work every day in the car, then you are considered the main driver.
How can insurance companies prove fronting?
These include interviewing both the main and named drivers, consulting motoring databases and even taking a look at CCTV. Most providers will have people trained to uncover this type of behaviour, so if it’s happening, they are likely to find out.
