Young Drivers' Insurance Premiums may be Preventing them getting a Job

02 March 2012

It is reported that a leading MP is warning that youngsters in rural areas are being forced to turn down work because they cannot afford the car insurance to get them there.    He has apparently stated that young people are “punished before they even get behind the wheel”.   For these young people in rural areas, the car is not a luxury, but a necessity.

He also added that he “appreciated that young drivers were in a high risk bracket for insurance but the vast majority of them do not drive dangerously and are not involved with accidents.  Companies must recognise hard working young people in rural areas are seriously struggling to meet their demands”.
