Females behind growth in 4x4s, woman car insurance company finds
Diamond has revealed that female drivers appear to be behind the rise of the 'Chelsea Tractor' culture.
According to the woman car insurance company's research, ladies with children are four times more likely to own a 4x4 as they did ten years ago.
However, it isn't only women who have taken to 4x4s. Around double the number of men were found to be driving these large vehicles today compared to a decade ago.
Despite this, men appear to be more likely to use them for practical purposes. Of those surveyed, most male 4x4 drivers told the woman car insurance firm that they were farmers, whilst most female 4x4 owners reported that they were company directors.
A spokesperson for Diamond said: "Some members of the public are critical of mums using their 4x4s on the school run, and these figures won't do much to deflect this criticism.
"4x4s are seen as a practical way in which to ferry children around due to their size, and some people perceive them to be safer for passengers," finished the representative of the ladies' car insurance firm.

Car insurance news 2005
*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).
