According to a new survey by Liverpool Victoria motorists are finding car repairs too difficult to undertake with modern cars.
Around 33 percent of drivers find the lights and information on their dashboards confusing, while some 75 percent feel that, in the event of a vehicle breakdown, they would be unable to repair the car themselves. Such is the way with modern cars that almost 50 percent of people in the Liverpool Victoria survey have no idea what is under the bonnet, since they rarely if ever open them.
The results of the survey highlight firstly the need for breakdown cover since most car drivers need that roadside assistance and also that car insurance cover may well become more expensive as items are not repaired but replaced.

A spokes person from Gocompare.com has talked about the importance of not auto renewing their car insurance policy. Motorists should not allow motor insurers to auto renew their car insurance when their annual term finishes, as most renewal prices are much higher than last year’s price and often less competitive than other insurers. Motorists should not let insurance companies renew their premium automatically without checking prices from other insurers first, as there are potentially cheaper deals out there. Motorists need to be proactive when it comes to their car insurance renewal period. You can often find a cheaper car insurance deal if you are prepared to search around and get other quotes from other insurers.

A new report from Green Flag shows that we are spending more time than ever before simply waiting – be it in a traffic jam, in a shop queue or for a delivery.
The report reveals we spend around six months of our life just waiting! It seems over a third of the people asked spend over and hour a week waiting in queues at shops and supermarkets. Add in waiting at service organisations, especially banks, and that figure rises to almost two hours.
We are all familiar with waiting in traffic, from the school run delays in the morning, through shopping traffic and the often disrupted motorway journeys. These can be infuriating but Green flag do advocate a policy of not getting stressed to avoid ill health and accidents.
A traffic queue can sometime lead people to drive more aggressively to get out of it, or into a space, but the upshot of that is they may then have to make a claim on their car insurance, which will cost them far more than the time they spent waiting.
