A study carried out by esure car insurance has found that younger drivers are more likely to buy an environmentally friendly car than older drivers.
Over 80 percent of drivers under 25 would consider using a hybrid, electric or bio fuel car according to the esure survey results, reflecting their attitude to the future of the planet or perhaps their concern at the rising cost of fuel. In fact 20 percent of all drivers said they would think about moving to a more fuel efficient vehicle to save money.
The hybrid and electric cars are certainly cheaper to run than existing petrol models, though initial purchase cost is high. Car insurance premiums are also relatively high due to the cost of any repairs that may be needed. Being new and innovative means parts cost much more than regular models.
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.
