In  California auto insurance as will as in British auto insurance, women have been found to get into fewer accidents and, therefore, file fewer claims. As a result, they are considered to be of lower risk. In auto insurance, the gap between the car insurance rates for males and females is at its greatest when the policy holders in question are younger than twenty five, but it continues with a smaller gap throughout the older ages.

In the UK, any companies have become women’s car insurance companies, claiming to offer better rates to women.

However, according to a British website that covers issues with auto insurance over there, looking at the quotes for women from these women only car insurance companies, the quotes from the women only companies tended to be seventy nine pounds, or around a hundred and sixty one dollars, more than the same women would be quoted with a regular car insurance provider.

It seems that having women get even more  auto insurance is not all it’s cracked up to be, at least not the way their doing it in the UK. It also looks like women having more auto insurance than men may be a thing of the past. Statistics in recent years show the gap closing in terms of auto accidents, with men getting in fewer and women getting in more. Be careful what you wish for.
