Young Female Motorist Wins Driver of Year Competition at Rockingham

Online, June 24, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Rhoda Sell was chosen as one of fifteen finalists from the insurer's 30,000 customers, based on their motoring record.

A team of judges from the race track assessed them during tests for wet weather motoring, getting out of skids and driving a Mini Cooper S Turbo, VG Supercar and an open wheel single-seater.

Rhoda from Leicester said: "The day has been so much fun and to win this award has made the experience all the more memorable. I loved the wet grip skid driving and what I really liked about the whole experience was that the emphasis was on safety rather than speed".
