Uninsured drivers add £30 to premiums
Uninsured motorists are costing each UK driver an extra £31 a year in car insurance costs, it has been claimed.
According to price comparison site comparethemarket.com, the total bill to UK drivers to cover their feckless counterparts comes to £500 million annually.
The site also uncovered widespread sentiment that the principal cause of the high numbers of uninsured drivers is that the government does not do enough to clamp down on the practice.
This theory was supported by almost nine out of ten of those surveyed.
Jeremy Moll, head of insurance at the firm.
said: "comparethemarket.com is keen to get consumers the best possible deal on their motor insurance. One way the government can help with this objective is to take action to reduce the number of illegal drivers on Britain's roads and that has to be through more severe penalties.
"If the number of illegal drivers decreases then the industry will have more flexibility in pricing policies for law abiding motorists."
