Motorists planning to drive in the Republic of Ireland are being advised by the AA to check their car insurance policies.
It is often the case that motor vehicle insurance provides cover at a lower level outside the UK than in it, though many people do not think of Ireland as being outside the United Kingdom. Motorists will usually have third party cover say the AA, rather than fully comprehensive though insurers do differ in their protection so a call is advised prior to travel.
Also important when driving in a different country is the need for breakdown cover. Again some providers will provide it whilst some will not, it is down to the individual company. AA car insurance and breakdown cover does include these overseas options and can be bought at highly competitive prices, get a quote on Moneygossip and check out the best deals available.
2 years after launching women only car insurance Sheilas Wheels are now one of the best recognised insurance companies around.
To celebrate this status Sheilas Wheels have been looking at how women shop for car insurance, finding that they actually spend more time choosing their outfit for the Christmas party than they do getting car insurance.
It appears that the average woman takes just over 2 hours searching for and then buying car insurance, no doubt helped by easy to use sites like the one at Sheilas Wheels of course. Another factor is that personal recommendations are very important to women, which can also make the whole process of getting car insurance faster.
Now when it comes to buying Christmas party outfits that is a whole different matter.
Technology is not always right is the message being sent out by car insurance companies such as Direct Line, suggesting drivers should not take the advice of the system blindly.
There have been many occasions when drivers have followed the route given to them by a sat-nav system only to find themselves heading down narrow farm tracks and through deep water. They carry on regardless though feeling that the satellite navigation system cannot be wrong. A big mistake say Direct Line since they have seen an increase in claims because of situations just like these.
If the situation continues then car insurance premiums are sure to rise, a scenario no one wants to see. Direct Line and other car insurance providers have to increase the premiums because of the extra costs they face so it is down to the drivers to make sure they use sat nav as an aid, trusting their own driving knowledge first and foremost.
