Fronting

Last reviewed 25 July 2026 · by the Savvy Insurance editorial team

What is fronting?

Fronting is dishonestly listing a lower-risk person as the main driver of a car mainly driven by someone higher-risk, to cut the premium. It can void a claim.

Example

Listing a parent as main driver of a car a young person drives is fronting - and risks a rejected claim.
