Dual Control
Car Insurance
Standard motor insurance is not designed to cover mechanically modified tuition vehicles. If your car is fitted with dual controls, it requires specialist underwriting to ensure both the modifications and the vehicle’s use are legally protected. At BG Insurance, we provide dedicated dual-control car insurance tailored for the unique physical risks and operational demands of your modified tuition vehicle.
