Being a Woman Driver Means Lower Insurance
« on: 02 July 2008, 21:11:23 »

I know its going to upset all you boys on the Forum, but women really do pay less car insurance than their male counterparts.

This is due to us women, being more careful drivers, more couteous, and less accident prone.

Insurance companies base their pricing on the risk involved and in the case of women, we beat you all hands down

So in effect we MUST be better drivers.

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Oh and one was actually brushing her hair and didnt notice me as we approached each other at 60mph on MY side of the road. :o ;D

apply for insurance online, accidentally state "female" instead of male, then make sure you dont have an accident

Mrs TheBoy actually pays more than I do.  Oddly, hers came down a bit when I became a named driver on her policy  :-/

I think there is a lot of sense in what you say though.  Traditionally, ladies tended to have lots of 'parking bumps' whereas blokes had the more spectacular biggies, though I think with the young drivers today, that seems to be reversing  :-/

Dusty, you could not be more wrong.
We must all accept that women are better at some things and men are better at other things.
for example. Women are better at cooking,cleaning, and fetching the coal.
Men are better at Making decisions,running the world and of course.........driving. So now you know.
Nice to have you on board Dusty........ :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y

Not in this house....

We both drive 3 litre MV6 estates, hers a manual, mine an auto...

She has a better driving history than me, within a year age gap of each other....

My insurance is £60 cheaper than hers  ;D
