In these days of compact urban areas and great public transport more and more people are questioning whether they need a car at all, the problem with giving up your car however is giving up the freedom it affords you when it comes to trips away and spontaneous tasks you may wish to complete. A good compromise is to keep the car but reduce the cost of maintaining it by only insuring it when you need to. A new type of insurance available to the public known as one day car insurance fits the bill perfectly, as the name suggests it allows you to insure your private vehicle for a period as small as a day, but it can also be used to insure the vehicle for anywhere up to 28 days.

The type of coverage provided by one day car insurance is exactly the same as that offered with an annual policy so you can rest assured that you will be able to get the agreed value of the car paid out to you in the event that the car gets stolen or written off. One fear that many motorists have is not that they will crash their car but that someone else will crash into them; the worst case of this is when someone crashes into your parked car and then leaves the scene of the accident without leaving any details. Provided that you have taken out one day insurance on the car you will be covered against this occurring.

With an annual insurance policy you are expected to pay for insurance cover for everyday of the year but the truth is that no one drives every day of the year and most city dwellers would scarcely use the car 30 times a year. For people who are only rarely using their vehicles one day car insurance is a smarter choice for saving money.

Most people are used to getting quotes for insurance either by ringing around the various insurance companies or alternatively by seeing a broker who will seek to get them the best deal. With single day car insurance, a lot of time and effort can be saved by searching for providers and getting quotes online. Even if you are unsure about whether or not this is the right type of insurance for you getting an online quote can be a non threatening way of finding out the price of the policy without having any sales pressure placed upon you.
