Costly car insurance for speeders
Published on 11/09/2006 By Pam Cyclone

New Research by car insurance company Admiral has found that drivers with fast cars are 69 per cent more likely to have speeding convictions.

The cover provider assessed data from more than one million motorists, finding that those with engines bigger than 2,500 cc are more likely to be charged with speeding than those with engines under 1,000 cc.

The research also discovered that the brand and model of car with the worst record for speeding is the Volvo XC90, with 44 per cent of its drivers being caught speeding.

Second place goes to BMW, whose X3, X5, 330 and Z4 all feature in the top ten. Sharon Clarke, Admiral's managing director, said: "It's clear from our research that many people who drive cars with powerful engines like to drive them fast. Most of the cars in the top ten cars for speeding are big, powerful and expensive."

According to the Department for Transport, speeding contributes to 40,000 injuries and 1,000 deaths on Britain's roads every year, with more than two-thirds of fatal or serious accidents taking place on roads with a 40 miles-per-hour or less speed limit. Ms Clarke added: "We would remind all motorists though that speeding not only costs lives, it can prove costly on your car insurance too."
