Roadside Service – An Important Part for your Car Insurance

Car insurance is a very important part in case of emergencies or accidents both for the driver and for the other side who is involved in the accident. But a very important part of car insurance involves roadside service which not many people know of.

Roadside service covers all your service charge involved at the time of an accident or emergency breakdown. Charges like towing service, tyre changing, roadside repairs, labour are partly taken care of by your insurance company if you opt for the roadside insurance along with your car insurance. But along with people not knowing about this service in their insurance people are also cheated with fraud roadside services which take undue advantage of the situation and usually turn up without a call by either the vehicle owner or the police.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) has thus warned the automobilist to be careful of such fraud recovery companies who arrive at the scene without the motorist or the cops actually calling them at the scene and sign consent of towing immediately from the driver. At that time the motorist is not very much aware of the cost due to the pressure but usually the bills for such recovery systems turn out to be really huge.

There are lots of advantages of Post office car Insurance like you can have easy monthly payment option, easy to apply and easy claim, you also have breakdown cover with this post office car insurance.

But if your insurance covers road service then you will be cooled off with that heavy cost. If not completely then maximum of the amount will be covered by your insurance company depending on your insurance if it is private or your company car insurance. They do not include the cost of the part supplied but cover maximum amount of the labour, the delivery and the installation.

So be careful the next time you buy your car insurance, good agents usually advice you to opt for the roadside cover as well but you make sure you add them to your insurance as it increases your premium only to a limited amount but saves a lot of money during an emergency.

Another Vehicle stuck at Land End Ford

Yet another warning issued to the drivers going towards Ford at Lands End near Charvil. The warning was issued by the fire brigade after another motorist got stuck this morning at 7:30 am. He was stuck in the ford where the old river crosses the Park Lane.

The motorist immediately called for the fire fighters but the man was told to call for his own vehicle recovery system to get his car removed from the area as there is nothing the fire fighters could do. The man was safe and out of his vehicle due to which the fire fighters refused to help and advised him to call for his own vehicle recovery system.

Nicole Targett from the Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service was amazed on how people still wish to drive though the Ford even after several warnings already issued from the Fir Rescue Team. Thus they have issued another warning after today’s incident. Even before entering the area there is a mark which shows how deep the water is. Currently the level is at 3 to 4ft which is not at all under normal driving conditions. And just next to the water mark there is a sign board warning the drivers about the severe condition. Currently there is a strong current running through the ford.

But this warning does not seem to help. She also added that in today’s incident they clearly refused to remove the vehicle was because the man was safe and he was already warned about his own mishap. She also said that they remove the vehicle only if the people inside the vehicle are not safe or if there is something on the vehicle which is of environment risk.

She sounded extremely concerned when she informed us on how the fire rescue team saved a women’s life last year while she was drowning. She says it is not about the vehicle you are risking by driving through 4ft deep water but due to the new technology you are risking your own life by trapping yourself in the vehicle.
