Wow, so presumably an ASD diagnosis is going to be a bad thing in the eyes of vehicle insurance companies, and they will bump the premiums up significantly, that's if they would insure you at all?
This seems very unfair as surely it go off driver record.
Definitely something to consider for anyone that doesn't yet have a diagnosis but is thinking of getting one.
i dont think they even ask if you have any disability. from what i see going for my motorbike insurance they ask only things about the vehicle, its registration, where you are going to keep it, how long you have had license, if you have any no claims bonus, what accessories you have for it, that type of thing.
Maybe so. But I believe your are supposed to declare such things to the DVLA. Insurance companies probably check these records 'behind the scenes'. Even if they don't all do that yet as a matter of course, I'm sure they will do at some point in the future. Seeing as the amount of data which is held about everyone is increasing all the time. I'm not huge on conspiracy theories, but I believe this scenario is quite different and potentially very fraught. All this sort of data will be accessible by insurance companies.I have no doubt.
