How soon is your insurance activated after you get a license?

I just got my licence a few hours ago. My parents have statefarm insurance and i dont know if im already insured. Does the information transfer from the DMV to the insurance companies to let them know i have a license or do we have to call and let statefarm know?

Yes!!! This calls for Toco Bell in Willits!!! Whoot whoot!!!

oh p.s why would seriously 11 people answer this dumb question? Dont people have better things to do with there time?

yes they need to call and add you to the insurance right away if you are going to drive their cars.

It activates as soon as your parents call the insurance agent and tell him you now have a license and need to be added to the policy. If they have not done that, you are not insured to drive their car. The DMV does not notify any insurance company that you got your license.

Your parents have to call the insurance company and add you to the policy. DMV does not normally share info with your insurance company.

They need to inform the insurance company there is another driver to be added on the policy.

Insurance companies don't have a crystal ball. Have your parents contact their insurance agent and have you added to their policy.

You have to call them and add you on it! the rate will go up. if your going to add another car you need to show them all the info of the car.

Oh no!!! The streets of McKinleyville are not safe God help us all. Couldn't you think of a better question for YAHOO! Answers like how do I change my last name to "Bubacoo" or about the nutritional benefits of washing your hair in beer. So just call State Farm already and peel out in the mall parking lot or behind K-mart... Just don't hit Wiggy... You might hurt your van ; )

You need to have your parents call their insurance company to get you added to their policy. You should still be covered until then.

you need to let them know, and will most likely have to pay more money
