For most insurance companies, young driver car insurance premiums are relatively high as they are viewed as being high risk. Although only one in six UK motorists are between the ages of 17 and 21, this age group is involved in a quarter of all accidents, according to the AA.
A recent report by The Independent states that according to the AA's insurance index a 17-year-old female driver can expect to pay an annual £3,072 for insurance while male drivers may have to part with £4,521.
Young drivers are being advised to shop around for their car insurance, especially when potentially faced by high premiums.
Also, young drivers can save on their policies by taking a Pass Plus course, which involves six hours of driving in varied conditions and on motorways, young motorists can save up to 30 per cent on their policies.
Young drivers are also advised that by providing detailed information to insurers, such as accurate mileage figures, they could save on their policies.
