Poll: Do you agree with the European ruling that ends cheaper car insurance for women?

Insurance companies can no longer offer women a discount for safer driving. Let us know what you think.

THE EUROPEAN COURT of Justice ruled yesterday that insurance companies can no longer offer cheaper car insurance to women, on the grounds that it is discriminatory to calculate risk factors based on gender.

Do you agree with the decision to end the practice of cheaper insurance for women? Or do you think women should be rewarded for safer driving? Or do you think the insurance for both sexes should be reduced instead?

Do you agree with the ruling?


Poll Results:

Yes: it's discriminatory (260)
No: women are safer drivers (244)
Insurance for both should be reduced (195)
