The car is being blamed for most of the pollution of the world, though this is far from reality as far as many are concerned. However Budget Insurance are on hand to help make it all better with their new emissions offsetting car insurance policy.
The insurer claims that one hundred percent of the customers carbon dioxide emissions will be offset for the duration of the policy. How this will work is that a contribution will be made to projects organised by the Carbon Neutral Company, who are overseeing different eco friendly activities across the globe that are helping clean it up.
This initiative from Budget Insurance is seen by some as a practical solution to going green, recognising that the car is a much needed mode of transport in many parts of the UK, but wanting to do something to mitigate its effects on the environment.
According to Diamond Insurance, the women only car insurance company, teaching assistants from Perth in Scotland are the safest drivers in the country.
The insurer looked at their own information as well as more general industry details to determine the safest occupations statistically, with these Scottish teaching assistants topping the table. Female accountants and secretaries also fared well in the survey, whilst for men the safest drivers were those with a policing background, computer programming and engineering. A spokesperson from Diamond Insurance noted that it was reassuring to know that the people tasked with protecting us are also safe drivers.
On the other side of the coin, the female drivers most likely to have an accident were hairdressers, with their chances of making a claim almost twenty percent higher than anyone else. Diamond Insurance welcome enquiries from any industry, confident that they will provide a very competitive quote.
A new car insurance policy has been introduced by More Than, designed especially for female drivers.
As part of the promotion for it, More Than Insurance are including a number of rewards and discounts with big name high street retailers. They have also built in key options that are well suited to the needs of female drivers. These include prioritized roadside assistance, a replacement vehicle provided within 2 hours, female friendly garages and up to GBP3,000 of cover for handbags and their contents.
A More Than car insurance spokeswoman was pleased to be able to offer a service that catered for the specific needs of women drivers so well. They went on to add that even the roadside recovery agents used would be able to find the driver by tracking their mobile phone and would be equipped with child friendly vehicles that included things to entertain the children.
