Why is Sterling Insurance for over 80s so cheap?

Sterling offers car insurance for older drivers, whichever policy they choose: third party only, third party fire and theft, or fully comprehensive.

Statistics suggest that older drivers are on the road less than younger drivers. The Institute of Advanced Motorists has revealed that pensioners comprise 8% of UK  drivers, but they are only involved in around 4% of injury accidents.

In comparison, the under 25s makeup 15% of the driving population but are involved in 34% of injury accidents.

From this, we can provide a cheaper insurance premium for a driver over the age of 80.
