Female drivers and the inequality of car insurance

Are women drivers safer?
We've all heard the adverts. Surely instead of gender it should be on your past record more. Just because I have a penis doesn’t make it correct for you to charge me more money to insure a car.

How many male drivers have had enough of inequality of car insurance companies favouring female drivers, often tempting them with cheaper car insurance or female oriented perks.

Two more points to consider, women are never keen to claim on insurance whereas men have the...more | warren |

| 23-6-2008 | I don't know why car insurance should be cheaper for women. They're bound to have more accidents. Look at that photo for example; if I had a pair of pins like that I'd have accidents all the time because I'd be constantly checking them out! | Rob |

| 22-6-2008 | There was an article in yesterday's Telegraph Money section indicating that the insurance companies which specialise in womens' insurance almost always work out more expensive than the results obtained by shopping around. | MikeP |

| 23-4-2008 | Women tend to destroy their cars over a period of time in a war of attrition, kerbing wheels, scraping sides, slipping clutches, misjudging parking spaces, and so on. Although these incidents are frequent, they are insignificant individually and thus not claimable. This gives rise to the perfectl...more | MikeP |
| 23-4-2008 | A woman doing much less of a distance than a man and in less busy times during the day will be less likely to have an accident than a more careful male driver who drives twice as far and in all conditions such as rush hour commuting, etc. This is a combination of chance per mile which varies accordi...more | Fair Play |
| 23-2-2008 | I used to be insured with kwik fit,until I realised just how much they were charging me! Then I found http://www.carinsurance-cheap.info/uk and saved more than I'd thought possible. Read the small print and you'll see just how much you're being charged over the odds-it's scary! | John |
| 02-2-2008 | sheila's wheels is based on the fact that women claim less than men, thats it, Men statistically are the safer drivers (according to hospital records, insurance claims of major accidents for which both men and women claim), not women like these adverts claim. They just make less claims on insura...more | daniel |
