Very good! As well as having the choice to except a black box or take higher insurance, its typically up to the age of 25. I find most if not all of the upcoming changes discriminatory because we are being treated unfairly compared to general market.
Not exclusively for the Under 25s. I was looking for an insurance quote for a Model S, seeing as it was relatively cheap and includes free charging for life. The quotes were eye watering and many included a black box. However, I’d be somewhat concerned if the only insurance I could get on a pretty basic EV SUV like the EV5 Air requires a black box. I’d be downright livid if the chosen car was a lifeless, uninspiring box on wheels that I chose because it was all I could afford and still had to have that system fitted.
I think after the initial shock of looking at the measures Motability have taken, it’s the absolute lack of choice that’s most infuriating. There are people who need to be able to do more miles, maybe not 20,000 a year but it’s not hard for me to imagine starting work and suddenly getting to 12-15k annually just by adding a commute 5 days a week.
Then there’s the pure idiocy of the policy. The Chancellor failed to bring in severe measures to force us lazy buggers back to work, now she’s making it impossible to go to work through removing the transport option we rely so heavily upon. It screams of policy by knee-jerk reaction rather than a thought through belief system. Say what you like about Reform but at least you can see where the policies they come up with originated, even Badenoch seems to have a strategic plan for what she wants her party to achieve. Even if you disagree with these policies, whether it’s because you think racism isn’t the policy you want to follow or if your economic education has been less freedom of markets and more ‘don’t screw the little guys’, there is a policy there to disagree with. Labour are busy saying and doing somethings that you’d expect Labour parties of old to do, like the child welfare cap, then they cut off cold weather payments for the elderly or try to go completely right wing and take it out on the disabled.

I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
