| Why do I need to insure my motor vehicle? |
Your car is probably one of the expensive things you own. Insurance protects this asset and helps you in coping with the expense of accidents, damage or theft. While driving, you are responsible for the safety of:
 | Your passengers |
| Your fellow drivers |
| Other people’s property |
| Pedestrians |
| Yourself |
Insurance helps cover the costs of potential damages or injuries in case of an unforeseen accident or theft. And above all, in India it is mandatory to have motor insurance before you can drive on the roads. |
