Music could protect women's car insurance

A study by Sainsbury's Car Insurance has shown that there could be a new way for ladies to protect their women's car insurance: listening to music.

The research revealed that 84% of motorists feel that listening to music relaxes them behind the wheel, reducing the likelihood of road rage, and 65% reported that it helps them to stave off tiredness and avoid fatigue-related accidents.

However, the type of music that motorists choose to listen seems to have an effect on how safe - or unsafe - their driving is. Some drivers reported that they got distracted by their music, whilst others said some types of music made them drive faster or more aggressively.

A spokesperson for the cheap car insurance firm said: "Many motorists clearly enjoy listening to music when they drive but it's important to recognise the effect it has on your driving and pick your music accordingly.

"It may well be tempting to listen to music to perk yourself up but our advice if you feel tired is to pull over and have a break, similarly consider switching to something soothing if you're beginning to feel a little irate."

Sainsbury's Bank also revealed the favourite types of music that women's car insurance customers like to listen to. Whilst a third of drivers appear not to care what kind of music is on the stereo, most of those who have a musical preference choose classical or pop, closely followed by rock.

*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).
