Young Drivers Car Insurance is Increasing
Young drivers car insurance is to get more expensive due to new speed guns. Speeding drivers in Scotland are likely to be penalised harshly due to the installation of the UK's longest speed trap - over 28 miles of the A77 between Kilmanock & Girvan. These new gadgets which will mean more expensive car insurance for young drivers are called SPECS cameras and will record the speed of all users on this section of road . Anyone caught speeding will automatically get a fine & 3 points - this has to be disclosed to the young drivers car insurance company at the time of the conviction.
Road safety is the catalysts for this change - on this stretch of road there have been 300 casualties with 15 fatalities and 78 serious injuries in just over 5 years. Due to the accuracy of these new devices, the 10% rule of error which has saved many drivers may no longer apply - these new SPECS cameras as well as the new laser speed guns can record speeds from over a mile away and mean the end to speeding with impunity. Young drivers worried about car insurance premiums in England can not relax - these cameras will come south in 2006.
