I still don't see why younger lads on their mum and dads policies would make a difference to us (outright policy holders).

Lets not forget insurance companies are a massive industry. Not because they rip young drivers off, but the volume of customers. I wont drone on about it cos ive mentioned it above, but millions of customers paying an average of a few hundred quid is the bread and butter of the revenue, the odd young driver is the Christmas pudding.

I would personally be happy to pay an extra 10% on my policy to ensure that my son (hopefully... one day ) is not priced out of driving, because I (as a parent) would end up fitting the bill for it anyway. And 10% off everyone would be more than enough to cut young drivers premiums.

The whole thing pisses me off to be honest, its all driven off greed because they get away with it, its all too easy.

One day some rich kid with a rich parent will get the ball rolling to get things changed. I hope so anyway
