Female fans of online car insurance stressed finds study

Despite women getting great deals when buying online car insurance, new research has shown that they're more likely to get stressed behind the wheel.

For years now, female driver insurance customers have been able to boast about their excellent driving skills but a new study in America might just sway some people's opinions.

The study carried out by The Stress Institute found that women have higher levels of cortisol than men after driving to their workplace.

Kathleen Hall, founder of The Stress Institute, said: "Women are so overbooked, overworked and overwhelmed, and they look at that hour commute as where they can work."

A spokesperson for CoverGirl Car Insurance Services, the experts in cheap online car insurance said: "Even when we ladies get a little stressed, we're usually better than me when it comes to driving. However, stress can lead to other health problems so we should make every effort to stay calm."

*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).
