Following on from the post that I put up here a couple of days ago, the World Cup is certainly having an amazing effect on cheap car insurance premiums. In the last three days alone, I have read of four incidents of car flags causing serious problems when on the road. Some have snapped off in the wind and caused an accident and others have been used as levers to pry open windows of cars when they are parked up.
So what can you do? Well, if you want to have the flags flying from your car then carry on. There is absolutely nothing wrong in demonstrating a little patriotism. However, you only have to take two steps to reduce the chances of causing a cheap car insurance problem for yourself. Firstly, never leave the flags on your car when you are away from it and second, always secure them effectively when you are driving. It is as simple as that.
