Accident stats highlight importance of women's car insurance
Tue, 28 Jun 2005

The majority of female motorists will be involved in an accident during their lifetime on the roads.

A survey by insurance company Privilege estimates that 65 per cent of people will be involved in some form of road accident - a figure that highlights the need for valid insurance cover.

A large proportion of the incidents are due to poor driving standards, especially in younger motorists. It is estimated that 45 per cent of people are involved in an accident whilst still in their 20s.

"It is shocking to see that two-thirds of the population are likely to have an accident on the roads in their lifetime," said Ian Parker, managing director of Privilege Insurance.

"British drivers should view these findings as a wake up call to look closely at their driving behaviour. We appreciate fully the stresses and strains of modern life, but urge people to value the importance of driving safely so that ultimately we work to reduce the impact of road accidents."
