MOTOR ACCIDENT INSURANCE

SIR,—In his article on the subject of accident insurance, Mr. Levin makes the assertion that insurers constantly and 'energetically support the cause of road safety.

If this is so, it is strange that the majority of insurers have overlooked the very simple expedient of increasing the `no claim' rebate. There must be many drivers who, year in and year out, have no occasion to present a claim to their insurers, yet, when rates rise, they are penalised equally with those who are less fortunate or less careful.—Yours faithfully,

C. C. MILLER
