The World has not ended today, but it is a black day for female motor insurance.
As of today it is illegal for insurance companies to give us different rates from those applied to male drivers. It will mean an average increase across the board of 30%, but for some young woman drivers it will be up to 40%!!
It is an absolute nonsense, and it means thanks to EU intervention the insurance companies cannot fairly take into account that women have far less accidents.

......................they just accumulate the most scratches and dents.

I'll have you know I have never scratched my cars, but I have had three accidents with me stationery, with my car badly damaged, two classed as "write off's, and guess what........................all three other drivers were men!!


Yep, I'll give you that one as I've scored the most severe damage to vehicles in our household, but then again I drive the most so statistically I'm bound to 'connect' more than my wife.

She just comes home and says "I've kerbed the alloys trying to get around some woman with a trolley in Waitrose car park", and when I look annoyed she asked what I'd have done, to which I reply "I'd have run the old *** over".

Only kidding.......................about running her over.
