I am French college student and I will be visiting my friends in New York for a 6- month holiday. I will have permission to drive my friend’s vehicle but want to know what I should do about the auto insurance?

In New York State, auto insurance is mandatory and you may find it to be expensive if you do not have a U.S. license. Some insurance providers add a surcharge if you do not have a U.S. driver’s license.

I would first recommend seeing if your friend’s insurance carrier will allow you to be put on his/her policy while you are in visiting. If not, shop around, many car insurance providers will allow you to begin your insurance with an international license but would require you to get a State driver’s license within thirty days.
