I don't let others drive my car

Unless it was an absolute emergency no one else is allowed to drive my car. That includes my SO. We have 2 cars so there is really no reason for my SO to drive my car anyway, we are on the same page for that.

So many people think it is weird. I have had many people both family and friends who have asked to use my car. I always say no.

I am not going to risk my car being wrecked by someone else who may or may not be able to pay to repair it. There are rental cars for a reason.

That is my confession.

Hubby was the only one allowed to drive my car, and vice versa. I don't have the issue of people asking to borrow my car.

I'm anon 2 so I'll reply I can't imagine not having good insurance that would pay for repairs.

I don’t let anyone drive mine
No one’s ever asked, though
Honey, I'm the original one-eyed chicklet in the kingdom of the blind, 'cause at least I admit the world makes me nuts.

Cool. I'm glad I don't have crappy insurance and don't have to worry about this sort of thing.

My husband and I have a combined insurance policy, so this is not an issue.

How would that cover friends and family driving your car?

It wouldn't, but I am talking about my spouse. I find it weird to not let the person who you are married to drive your car. As for family and friends, it depends on the situation. If it is a low-risk situation, like they're driving down the 30 mph two lane road to pick up something and they are my family or friend that I know well, I don't have an issue with it. I have collision coverage (which is for the car, not the driver, so I do not need to be driving my car for my car to be covered) and they have their own car insurance, so it would be covered.
