The director general of the Institute of Insurance Brokers has defended companies specialising in car insurance for women.
He rebutted suggestions which said that women's car insurance is discriminatory, saying that ladies' cheap motor insurance quotes are justified because of their better safety record and the fact that female drivers tend to have more minor accidents than men.
However, he also said that some ladies could be paying more on their car insurance for women by having a male named driver on the motor insurance policy.
He said: "Obviously if they took up a policy but there were men or young men also driving the car, then it could negate the benefit."

*A replacement car can normally be arranged under one of the following conditions: (1) Comprehensive policyholders – a replacement car may be available under the terms of your insurance policy. Please check your policy details for more information. (2) Non fault accident – where we have the name, car registration number and insurance details of the person who caused the accident, we can supply a replacement car. This is done on a credit hire basis which means the costs for this service will be passed onto the insurance company of the person who caused the accident. We may not be able to arrange a replacement car where we are unable to get an admission of liability from their insurance company, or where the driver is untraceable or uninsured. (3) Repair garage – if your car is booked in for repairs following an accident, the repair garage may be able to provide a replacement car (subject to availability).
