September 29 - As South Africa's insurance guide we have to call it as we see it when it comes to short-term insurance, and few policy holders get as many perks and savings as those who insure through 1st For Women. The only problem is if you're a male (and I like to think I am) then you're out of luck.
First For Women have the evidence to back up their decision to exclude the Okes from receiving coverage.There are many studies out there which state that women drivers, far from being the butt of many off-colour jokes and rude remarks (by men, it must be said), are actually far safer behind the wheel than the boys.
Women are also far less likely to be involved in a serious road accident or to operate heavy machinery while under the influence of beers and the memory of another inadequate performance (by the Boks of course!).
For that reason, First For Women end up saving a bundle by insuring drivers who don't claim all the time, and those savings are passed back on to their clients. When one looks at the savings on offer it's enough to give a bloke the opposite of penis envy - a concept Freud never thought of possibly because he didn't have to worry about insuring his buggy at outrageous monthly premiums.
Women who insure their vehicles with 1st For Women save an average of nearly 40% on their premiums, and also qualify for free funeral cover, free coverage on their handbags (up to R2,000, which is handy), and free emergency roadside assistance.
If you're a male reading this article you have two options: 1. The Tootsie route, which no one wants to see you do, and 2. If you're married or in a serious relationship now would be a good time to ask your beloved to put the car insurance in her name!
