Without knowing how many drivers there are, this very much simplified chance cannot be calculated.

In real life each driver has a different chance of having an accident - the cost of motor insurance is dependant upon the risk (chance) that you are likely to (a) have an accident and (b) how severe that accident is likely to be; if everyone had the same chance, everyone would pay the same motor insurance premiums.
