This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Stop insurance companies charging excessive amount for all
Insurance companies are charging through the roof for all drivers , sometimes 10x the value of your vehicle, if you have a non fault accident then your premium doubles , if you get a few points on your driving licence then it goes through the roof , the government should cap them
More details
Why should we pay more just because we get hit in a no fault accident, why should we get penalised when we get a few points , when no accident or financial cost to the insurance company has arisen , more and more people are driving without insurance due to being priced out of being able to afford it , risking us , if the government did something to stop insurance companies charging so much then more people will buy insurance instead of risking driving without - please sign to try make a change
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The cost of car insurance is a decision for insurance companies to make, rather than the Government or Parliament.
You could start a petition asking for tighter regulation of car insurance costs, or asking the Government to work with insurance companies to lower the costs.
