Instead of punishments for not going green the government should use incentives instead says Tesco Finance.
Research carried out shows that around 2 million people already drive an eco friendly vehicle but that is dwarfed by the 21 million who would seriously consider such an option if it was made easier to do so. Tesco Finance found that the cost of buying such a vehicle was prohibitive to many.
The Tesco Finance study also found that those aged 55 and over are the most likely to have gone eco friendly, with 8 percent having a green car. This contrasts with the 34 and under age group where those with an ecologically friendly car is just 4 percent. A Tesco representative saw the research as proof that the nation is happy to embrace green transport as long as it is financially possible for them.
The people at Tesco Finance feel that the best car insurance for a family should include cover for child seats and other family safety fitments.
Tesco considered this situation as part of their support for Child Safety Week and as they offer car insurance they felt it right to discuss this particular matter. Everyone knows how important it is to ensure all appropriate safety measures are taken so it should be an integral part of any car insurance policy that cover is provided for child seats, booster seats and so on.
It is quite easy to check many car insurance terms at once through comparison services, where Tesco car insurance will be listed alongside other providers. This gives the facility to assess different options and find the most suitable blend of price and features.
Being caught using a mobile whilst in the car is going to prove even more costly as insurers will increase premiums for those charged says AA Insurance.
Having checked the situation with 8 different insurance companies across the market AA Insurance found that premiums could cost between 4 and 18 percent more because of a mobile phone offence. This can easily add GBP40 or more to the average annual premium.
A spokesman from AA Insurance explained that using a hand held mobile phone whilst driving means reduced vehicle control, slower reaction times and a heightened risk of an accident. Therefore premiums are naturally going to be more as the risk is greater.
