Motor Insurance

Car Insurance

Car insurance (also known as motor insurance, or auto insurance) is insurance for cars, usually private and other road vehicles. Its primary use is to provide financial protection against physical damage or bodily injury resulting from traffic collisions and against liability that could also arise from incidents in a vehicle. Vehicle insurance may additionally offer financial protection against theft of the vehicle, and against damage to the vehicle sustained from events other than traffic collisions, such as keying, weather or natural disasters, and damage sustained by colliding with stationary objects. The specific terms of vehicle insurance vary with legal regulations in each region.

Comprehensive Insurance
Covers damages to the third party, as well as your own bike. Best for cover losses from incident like theft and natural disasters

Third Party Insurance
Covers only the damages to a third party and their property. Best if insuring only because it’s mandatory (but we wouldn’t recommend that)
