Create a state-owned car insurance provider

Closed 153 signatures

What the petition asks

Car insurers appear to be able to charge what they like, which we believe has resulted in unfair insurance prices for many. Creating a state-owned car insurance provider could help ease pressure on working people who are struggling to afford basic necessities.
Car insurance is required by law for motorists, so why allow car insurance companies to set our prices sky high in a Cost of Living Crisis us working people face? We believe this is unfair and should be addressed. If a law is passed, such as a requirement to have valid insurance, it should be provided by those who implemented the law, not private corporations.
