Churchill Insurance: Prepare for motoring accidents

The average motorist is likely to be involved in nine car accidents in a lifetime, according to the latest research from Churchill Insurance.

Every year 3.9 million motoring accidents happen across the UK, which is the same as 7.4 accidents occurring every minute, Churchill Insurance calculated.

This figure equates to one accident every six and a half years and the frequency of them is "more or less" the same for both men and women.

However, as the average lifespan of a woman is longer than a man's, the fairer sex is predicted to average 9.2 car accidents in a lifetime, while men average 8.2.

Darren McCauley, head of car insurance at Churchill Insurance, said that people are "surprised" by how often they need to make a claim "which highlights the need for comprehensive insurance".

"Car accidents are one of the less enjoyable things about being a driver, but it's inevitable that you will need to make a claim at some point," Mr McCauley concluded.
