Rural insurers offer new car finance deal
A new scheme to reward safe drivers with reduced car insurance premiums is being offered by rural insurer NFU Mutual.
The car finance deal involves young drivers between 17 and 20-years-old giving a written pledge to drive their vehicles safely.
Parents also sign the document, which is known as Safe Driving Agreement and provides a £100 discount on their offspring's car insurance.
NFU Mutual has conducted the agreement in association with the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).
The deal is available to drivers who have their own car insurance and to those who are covered by their parents' policies.
Sid Gibson, NFU Mutual chief underwriting manager, said: "With our close links to rural communities we are aware of the increasing dependence on cars in these areas and believe this scheme will promote responsible driving among young people with the support of their parents.
He added that he hopes the "financial incentive" involved in this car insurance deal "will encourage more youngsters to drive responsibly and reduce their risk of being killed or seriously injured whilst driving".
As well as insurance, NFU Mutual also provides products such as investments, pensions and loans.
