LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Gender and Car Insurance FAQs (for the article, visit link at the end)
Why do people assume car insurance rates for women are higher?
It's a common stereotype that women are poor drivers. However, across the board they exhibit more careful driving behavior and have fewer speeding tickets and DUIs. They also tend to be involved in fewer accidents and therefore file fewer claims.

Males under the age of 25 have the most accidents in every state. Males in general are involved in more car accidents, more fatal car crashes and more DUIs. This has been the case since data began to be compiled on the topic in 1975.
