If you are driving from work (after a shift) and not going home, but instead going to a friend's house or whatever, is that still classed as commuting?
Commuting is travel to or from a permanent place of work. It's not hard to understand guys.

I do wonder how some people, sniff, you know.....life.Commuting is travel to or from a permanent place of work. It's not hard to understand guys.
So if you left work and were going on holiday straight after, and you drove to the airport 150 miles away and had an accident, you'd still be classed as commuting would you? Because you'd have left your place of work originally. Seems daft to meI do wonder how some people, sniff, you know.....life.
Then I will phone all the insurance companies tomorrow and tell them this. Not understanding something is not understanding, not wrong because you don't understand.So if you left work and were going on holiday straight after, and you drove to the airport 150 miles away and had an accident, you'd still be classed as commuting would you?

No, that trip would likely be classed as pleasure, however you had to get to work in the first place, thus still requiring commuting on your policy.So if you left work and were going on holiday straight after, and you drove to the airport 150 miles away and had an accident, you'd still be classed as commuting would you?

It always has been as long as I can remember (and I've been driving for 18 years)
'Social, Domestic and pleasure'
'Social, domestic, pleasure and commuting'
'Business'
I have to get business as I occasionally have to use my car for work, during work hours.
They then ask you how many of the miles you've put down (e.g. 12k) are business and how many are social.
So everyone who goes to work in their car is commuting. I thought that meant to another city. Looks like a lot of people (including me) are under insured.
Commuting - going to work to pay them damn bills.....Social - Driving to the pub.
Domestic - Driving to the tip.
Pleasure - Bouncing off the limiter while pulling mad skids around your favourite country roads.

Not really, in terms of commuting it makes it more probable that you will be driving in peak hours i.e. around when the 9 to 5 crowd start/finish which means you're at higher risk of an accident due to larger volumes of traffic and half asleep drivers.Driving is driving and having to define the purpose of why your driving is just rather silly and unneeded.
Not really, there is more chance of being involved in an incident during rush hour due to sheer number of other people on the road at the same time, that's why commuting exists on policies.Okay how about taking your partner to the tip, Or driving your Mum to the tip. Or they work at the tip does that now make it a commute?. Could be defined in different ways but your still driving to the tip.

For a tenner I have to ask, why wouldn't you?
This is a forum for overclockers, people who will spend vast amounts on make an extra few FPS.
Fully comprehensive, business and pleasure is surely a minimum for anyone not insuring something work 500 quid?

They do but it's offset by the increased risk of their odd sleeping patternsBit indiscriminate mind - some people work night shifts, etc. when the roads are empty - bet they don't get a discount.
