January (along with November, December) is one of the months which sees the highest volume of car insurance claims over the year according to Admiral. Data shows the highest percentage of severe incidents take place during the winter months, 11% in January being classified as severe. Severe incidents relate to those where the vehicle is so badly damaged it’s undrivable, and potentially where someone is injured. Lorna Connelly, Head of Claims at Admiral said: “Winter brings with it a range of unpredictable weather that could dramatically impact driving conditions and makes even the shortest of journeys dangerous. A bleak few days ahead for the UK with triple-digit rainfall totals in places + snow melt resulting in serious flooding risk. Gale-force winds another possibility mid-week.
