What the petition asks
Under 25s are punished by high prices just because they are young, even with a telematics device fitted that records and transmits data about your driving proving your driving compentency. Although statistics show young drivers are risk not all of us should be punished for others bad driving.
Those of us who even with a telematics device fitted and also a very high score on that device are still hit with sky high prices just because we are young. I have seen in many cases. And have met people who Have been banned from driving written cars off and endangered others lives but just because they had been driving longer and were older there insurance was pennies. The majority of young hard working drivers are hit with high prices and have to pay for others incompetence and lack of care.
