Oh that's long gone G. women only want men now because a dildo doesn't pay round int pub:D:D:D

Re: Bad News for Women Drivers ...
 

It does seem a little unfair, after all insurance companies base their premiums on the risk value, and women were in a category of a lower risk payout than men. :(

So are they going to re-assess the risk then for living in an M15 area and not a BB5 location ? Can get your car nicked/pranged anywhere these days.

Personally i think its another fine example of P.C. gone mad, should be used to this by now, but i aint.:(

Re: Bad News for Women Drivers ...
 

i thought it was wrong for women to get cheaper premiums because women have less accidents and not for gender reasons

the main reason why women are less likely to claim is because there are less women driving than men.If there was more women driving than men then men would be less likely to claim because they would hold less insurance policies.:)

Its surprising, but I have never been a very good passenger in any vehicle, seeing driving was part of my job, I was far more at home behind the wheel of a car or anything else for that matter. Its therefore rather surprising that I now feel very safe when out in the car with either Joan or my Daughter, they are both very good and safe drivers, who are not frightened to put their foot down when needed:D:D

Re: Bad News for Women Drivers ...
 

I was seething with this ruling, and as ken said it has really opened a can of worms Its not just car insurance that this will now apply for, It's all insurance policies that will have to fall in line. Where is the line that we draw, health insurance should be the same rate even if you drink and smoke excessively? And now Ageism applies too so older people will have to pay higher prices

Some stupid idiot was only thinking about himself!

Re: Bad News for Women Drivers ...
 

Sadly, if we are to have equality for all, it sometimes comes at a price.

There were probably similar complaints about costs when the Equal Pay Act become law in 1975. When women, doing the same job as a man, were for the first time entitled to the same pay.
