RTA motor claim figures published only yesterday confirmed the following in respect of RTA cases:-

2016/2017 780,324

2017/2018 650,019

That is a REDUCTION of 130,305!

Epidemic of claims and fraud? More a case of the ABI shareholders and executives rubbing their hands in glee as this Bill progresses to undermine the innocent victim.

Fraud does need stamping out full stop. However, to simply line the pockets of insurers will do nothing to help clamp down on it if anything, it will simply exacerbate it further.

Insurers in my eyes need to do more to help tackle fraud themselves. The lack also of insurer accountability is also a major factor here.

Harsher custodial penalties would be a good starting point as would more high profile media coverage of offences which would hopefully help determine fraudsters in the first place.
