We also have a wealth of knowledge of the things that can be done as a seventeen year old driver to help to reduce your car insurance premiums. Check out our 17 year old driver car insurance top tips page for further details.
17 year olds are the most expensive group of drivers to insure and are often subject to large age excesses of £350 and more. This is because one in five drivers will have an accident in their first year on the road. As time goes on drivers gain experience behind them the insurance premiums and excesses are likely to reduce as long as they have managed to avoid accidents. This is because they are proving themselves to be safer drivers and the risk that they represent to an insurance company is reduced.
Seventeen year old male drivers are even more likely to be involved in a road accident than seventeen year old female drivers. Therefore, car insurance rates for seventeen year old boys and girls differ accordingly.
