A condition of coverage of any auto policy is that the operator must be licensed to operate a vehicle. The requirement affords the insurer assurance that the driver has some skill level, and it can set rates accordingly. Since a newly licensed driver, particularly a young one, does not have a great deal of driving experience, rates are generally higher than those for a more experienced driver. That said, an extensive at-fault collision driving history will increase the rates for even a long-time licensed driver.
The insurance premium (the amount charged to the customer) is a function of the rate. Rates are usually subject to approval by the state insurance regulator. The premium is calculated by multiplying the dollar amount of coverage purchased times the rate.

Is an unlicensed driver crashes a vehicle that is insured what happens?
Technically, the insurance company should cover the costs of the other vehicle. If the unlicensed driver took the vehicle without permission, the owner may even be able to collect on the collision insurance to cover part of their expenses, but if he/she does that he/she will probably have to show a police report that the unlicensed driver took the vehicle without permission and that it was technically, automobile theft. On the other hand, the insurance costs for the owner may to up dramatically whether the owner gave permission or not. It all depends on the insurance company and how they view the circumstances. The unlicensed driver may not be allowed to get a drivers license for several years, depending on state laws.
