Recent research has suggested that one in ten fail to take out travel insurance when travelling abroad. With the average medical claim being £2,500 and premiums costing just £20, travel insurance is good value. Women aged between 34-44 were the least likely to take out insurance. This research surveyed 2000 people and two out of five people admitted suffering an accident or food poisoning while on holiday, all of which are covered by insurance.
 
2 Million Uninsured Drivers
Monday, 28 September 2009 09:17

A report by Direct Line has said that penalties for driving without insurance are too lenient and do not motivate drivers to buy insurance. Under new government proposals drivers can be fined as little as £50, significantly less than buying car insurance. With insurance for young drivers costing as much as £3000, many drivers would rather risk getting their car seized than paying the insurance bill. It is estimated that there are 2 million uninsured drivers on the road.
