‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Motor Insurance. Discounts for advanced driving tests
Summary
Collins says no advanced driving tests currently operate in the State and leaves any premium discounts to individual insurers.
asked the Minister for Industry, Trade, Commerce and Tourism if he will consider encouraging motor insurers to offer discounts on motor premiums for drivers who have undertaken advanced driving tests.
Comment on this
I am informed that at present no such advanced driving tests are run in the State, although there may be drivers here who have passed these driving tests abroad. While any measures which improve the standard of driving are to be welcomed, the question of granting discounts to persons who have passed such tests is a matter in the first instance for individual motor insurers to consider and decide.
