Please help lower the cost of car insurance for young people

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Please do something as us young drivers are struggling especially people who don't come from a high earning background.16 year olds in USA are driving anything they like for a reasonable price whereas, in the UK,we have to pay insane amounts for a car which is embarrassing,small and very unpractical
The car insurance market is going insane I'm paying £205 a month for a 2007 1 litre car (the cheapest car possible to insure) with a fully clean license and I've been driving since 17. Last year the quote was £169 a month nothing whatsoever has changed since and the cheapest quote i am getting is £205 please help us as i am just an innocent young lad who wants to drive something better but i cant because I'm in debt before the annual insurance ends☹️
