The over-50s are the most likely to have road rage worries when on the road. Compare car insurance and car hire insurance online now.

Motorists aged over 55 are far more concerned about the traumatic effects of road rage and car jacking than their younger counterparts - they may also not understand that a significant minority of policies do not provide cover for these areas.

While the effects of a car jacking or road rage incident can vary widely, many victims may suffer personal injury and require trauma counselling as well as being out of pocket for other expenses incurred as a direct result of the incident.

We recommend at MoneyMaxim that if this is an area they are concerned about u8sers should check their car insurance policies carefully. Policies offer very different benefits with providing cover for medical expenses and trauma counselling, while others include other benefits such as emergency dental treatment or daily cash benefit for each 24-hours a policyholder is hospitalised
