The basic point is about younger drivers who feel ripped off by the car insurance sector. That is certainly a sentiment. Is it Mr. Griffin's assessment that they are correct to feel ripped off? The Central Bank stated that younger policyholders continue to present the highest average surpluses, that is, for every €1 in car insurance paid by younger drivers, the car insurance companies pay out less per €1 in terms of claims. Is that Mr. Griffin's experience? Is that how people feel about it?
