the government is quite happy sticking to the pricing people off teh road method which is easily proven by how they allow insurance companies to sky rocket premiums for not only people who have had claims but people who havnt using the same old tired excuses
for example now if you have an accident that isnt your fault what so ever it still effects your policey when its time to renew and in most cases puts up your premium .
i know plenty of people with many years no claims and their policies have shot up £500 and all teh insurance companies are in on it so theres no real choice for customers its all rigged to screw you because they say crime in your area is up despite government telling us crime is down
sadly raising the driving age to 21 would only serve the insurance companies because instead of seeing a positive they would use it to tehir advantage and say 21 year olds are the new high risk group as they would need to recoup money lost made from 17 year olds who they say are high risk.
Car insurance laws and guidelines need a serious rethink in ths country the insurance companies are out of control and a law unto themselves.
there are speedcameras on almost every road,speedcheck areas,speedbumps bigger than a house in some cases and various other "traffic calming measures" in place.Are none of these measures working and reducing accidents hence bringing down insurance for people ?
