Legal penalties 'will not stop everyone driving uninsured'
03 September 08

Not all female motorists who drive without car insurance will be put off by the legal penalties of being caught, according to the AA.

Andrew Howard, AA's head of road safety, said: "There is a lot of car confiscation and car crushing that goes on for uninsured drivers."

However, he added while it is possible to pick up a car for half the price of a motor insurance policy, some people will continue to flout the law.

Mr Howard stated: "It all depends on how far outside the law you're prepared to live."

Figures from the Motor Insurance Bureau have shown that seizures of uninsured vehicle hit 150,000 in 2007, with one vehicle being taken every three minutes.

Elsewhere, Comparethemarket.com has revealed that UK drivers pay an average of £31 a year more on their car insurance because of uninsured motorists.

Women drivers may find they can get a better deal by looking for female friendly car insurance.
