Spain 'outshines the UK'

Spain puts the UK to shame when it comes to tackling traffic accidents, it has been claimed.

According to the Association of British Drivers (ABD), both countries have similar numbers of vehicles on their roads but in 2008, 2,946 people were killed in Britain compared with 2,182 in Spain.

It pointed out over the past 15 years, Spain has more than halved its traffic accident fatalities while the UK has achieved a reduction of 20 per cent.

Nigel Humphries from ABD said the improvement that has been seen in Britain has little to do with the government and more to do with improved car design.

"Without this, it is likely UK casualties would have risen, road safety policy here can take little credit for our miserable achievement," he stated.

With more serious accidents taking place in Britain, it may be harder for vehicle owners to secure cheap cover.

Female motorists may find they can get the best deals on specialist insurance for women drivers, as ladies are generally considered to present a lower risk than their male counterparts.
