Now guys; don't be mad at me for this short piece. First of all, the news stated that your credit score affects how much you pay for your car insurance. ???!!! What the heck has that got to do with anything. If you haven't had any tickets or accidents.....THAT is what should determine your premium. Men pay roughly $50 less per month for their premium than women. And considering of the average count of 104 million men drivers; who have more Dui's, violations and 6.1 million accidents VS 105 million women drivers; who only have 4.4 million accidents....I don't get it. Granted; the number of total incidents is ridiculous on both genders, but still. I haven't had a ticket in 18 years or an accident (which wasn't my fault) in 40 years but I'm gonna have to pay more for my car insurance? Talk about 'inequality'.

Hello! Long time no read. Write a letter to Melania Trump. Make her interested in the topic. :-)

I know I've been missing @MALUSE . Between my health and financial issues and my father dying, it's been a mess. I might just do that with Melania.

This is how it works here in Europe, you pay less if you have no accidents. Only young drivers pay more, no matter if they are men or women.

@nanette64 This is not only a Swiss rule, all Europe adopted this rule.

It doesn't make sense nor is it fair but I do believe you're right about women paying more

Back when I use to work for an insurance company, your premium was chosen by what zip code you lived in. So if you had a lot of looney-tunes in your zip code, you got screwed @Marilynda1225 . I don't think any of it is fair.
