Woman Driver Car Insurance

In recent times there has been a lot of press and media comment regarding women driver’s car insurance. Moves by the European Union to force UK companies to charge the same premiums irrespective of gender were thwarted on the grounds that statically women drivers pose less a of risk to car insurers. This is bourn out of the fact that compared to their male counterparts women are involved in fewer serious road accidents and therefore, their propensity to claim is less.

As a result of the climb down by the EU, there have been some additional entrants to the UK insurance market who only specialise in offering car insurance for women. So what can a woman expect from obtaining quotes from such companies? Some of these insurers and intermediaries claim to offer cheaper premiums, tailored insurance products, sympathetic service and hints and tips on car safety.

What about Mainstream Insurers?

It is worth noting, that the reason that many of the specialised insurers exist today is in part due to the claims statistics built up over a number of years by the mainstream insurance companies that demonstrate that women are safer drivers than men and therefore make fewer claims on their policies. With this fact in mind it is not surprising that traditional insurance companies still offer competitive quotes and special discounts to women. Therefore, as with any type of insurance, it pays to obtain as many quotes as possible from a variety of different sources to get the best value for money.
