Car insurance for young drivers

Young Drivers Car InsuranceCar insurance for new and young drivers has always been expensive and due to this we have highlighted some tips that will help you get cheap car insurance.

The reasons below suggest why young drivers pay more for their car insurance:

  • At least a third of deaths on the road are caused young drivers aged between 17 – 24
  • Young drivers are more likely to have an accident in the first 2 years of driving than any other time.
  • Young drivers claim more due to theft and vandalism to their cars
  • Young drivers have no or low no claims bonuses

All the above points stack up against young drivers when applying for car insurance and therefore premiums are usually very high.
