There is a wealth of help and information available specifically for women drivers and even more aimed at motorists in general that is incredibly useful.
The UK FOXY Lady Drivers Club helps women find trustworthy garages, save money on their motoring and stay safe on the roads. There are also several female-only car insurance providers, such as Sheilas’ Wheels and Diamond, which aim to offer the very best deal for female motorists.
Most other motoring groups and insurance companies also advise women on their specific needs and give advice on how to boost confidence, learn new skills and gain the ability to adapt to any situation while on the road.
You may also find female-only owners groups, enthusiast clubs and forums on the internet, so it is worthwhile spending some time to see what is out there.
When it comes to learning or brushing up your skills, the larger driving schools will have female instructors or you can find private female tuition.
Should you have a breakdown, be sure to inform the recovery company that you are alone or with children if that is the case, as they put females to the top of the list when sending out tow trucks and mechanics.
