Points in Flensburg: Two car brands are way ahead

There are always prejudices about certain car brands and their drivers.

Is it all just talk or is there a hint of truth in it?

A comparison portal has checked which car models and brands get the most points in Flensburg.

Heidelberg - Two car brands are probably particularly popular with traffic offenders: Audi * and Porsche. In any case, the comparison portal Verivox came to this result in an evaluation. The company compared the motor vehicle insurance contracts of the past 24 months. According to a report, the 100 car models and 30 car brands that had the most insurance contracts on the in-house portal were examined.

In the analysis, privately used vehicles were predominantly taken into account.

The information provided by users who took out motor vehicle insurance was evaluated anonymously, as reported by Verivox.

The users stated, among other things, how many points they have in Flensburg, as these can have an influence on the insurance price.

This information should also not be cheated, as a penalty may be levied in the event of damage.
