5th December 2006

New figures published today by Endsleigh Insurance show that claims for car theft across the UK have fallen by 31% over the past three years.

The figures were revealed in Endsleigh’s latest report ‘Motor Cities 2006’, which identifies the UK’s top ten safest and riskiest towns and cities for motorists. The results were collected by analysing theft claims across the UK over the last three years from the people that Endsleigh insures. Endsleigh’s report backs up the perception that car crime is falling across the UK as a whole.

The three worst cities for car theft were found to be Hull, Leeds and Bradford. The safest cities were Norwich, Solihull and Swindon. Bradford was also found to be risky for car accidents, along with Ilford and Inner London. The three places where accidents were least likely to happen were Swansea, Belfast and the cycling city of Cambridge.
