Surgeons most likely to make insurance claim

DOCTORS who work as surgeons are the most likely to make a claim on their car insurance, with 36% of them making an ‘at fault’ claim at some point in their driving history in the past five years.

The trend continues with hospital consultants in fourth and clinical psychologists in fifth spot and psychotherapists in sixth.
