The statistical odds of your previous post happening are?

Plus if it happened enough the insurance industry would ensure that it didn't happen as they would add as stipulation that the experienced driver would have to be over a certain age.

a few weeks ago people were claiming that a fronting situation can lead to a permanent disability for a doctor, millions of pounds of compensation leading to a member of the public being made bankrupt!!!!! and now i'm being ridiculed for coming up with an example that is against the odds?!?!?!?

all i'm saying is that the current system, a simple "you must be over 21 with 3 years driving experience" seems a bt simplistic and risky

I would create a system that says you also must have no more than 3 convition points, must be full time employed, and aren't allowed to be an experienced driver in a vehicle of higher cubic capacity than the vehicle you regularly rive

not rocket science, i'm sure people with a btec diploma in insurance could come up with a better proposal though;)

lmao thats BS! And how would you define "regular"?

Lets say i have 2 cars... A 2.0 TDI as my daily driver, but also a BMW M3 which has an engine greater than 3litre but as i only drive it once every few months on track days does that count as "Regular"?

Aside from the fact that 'cc' means !!!! all anyway. My other car is a Caterham Super 7 GSX 1300R Hayabusa that will !!!! all over nearly any car out there... does that mean i cant teach someone to drive a 1.4 Fiesta as i drive a 1.3?

Get a grip.

i agree my proposal isn't 100% perfect, i just think it's a step in the right direction compared to the current rules.

I eagerly await your proposal as to what system and criteria would work best. Rather than just criticise other peoples suggestions, why not come up with a proposal of your own????????


As for defining "regular", then this would presumably be a dilemma similar to the fronting issue, and the experts on here claim that the insurance industry has a tight grip on this, no problems winning legal cases that are disputed, so shouldn't be a problem in this situation either;)
