Listening to the media and all the propaganda against young drivers you'd of thought the top cars on this list wouldve been Astra's, Saxo's and Polo's. There may be an argument for alot of them go uninsured but even that wouldnt cover up this dirty secret that its the pensioners which are the real problem.
Ive never seen a youngster drive the wrong way down the M6 and not even realise it, or reverse into a parked car at 20mph and not even realise it, or inexplicably manage to roll the car over in a quiet side street with nothing around, yet i have encountered old ditherers who have managed to achieve such a thing.
There could be an argument to say that alot of cars youngsters have are common cars, things like Fiesta's etc which all age groups have so even if alot of them crash it it'll still barely make a percentage of the total units sold, where as pensioners (like it or not) are still Honda's main clientele in the UK (apart from the Civic Type R).
It still seems its almost taboo to point out pensioners are a menace though, its always the youngsters fault.
