Because males under 25 get into more than their share of accidents,
therefore costing the insurance companies more.

You're lumped together with the young knuckleheads out there, I'm afraid,
and it's probably the only way it would really work.

16 years old, no driving record...what are you going to charge them a year?
Cheap?

Or do you wait until they bust a move, cause $$$$ claims, and _then_ try a
recoup the losses in premiums?

Good luck.
