also covered. From the above coverage, for all classes of vehicles,
the risks of riot, strike, malicious and terrorism damage, earthquake,
flood and storm can be opted out of with a consequent discount in
premium.
In addition to these, cover is also available for protection, removal
costs and authorisation of repairs.
Section II covers the liabilities towards third parties, i.e. liabilities
of bodily injuries and property damage.
For Commercial Vehicles, however, an additional Section III covers
the vehicle while it is being used for the purpose of towing disabled
vehicles. This section covers third party liabilities that the insured
vehicle or the one being towed may incur as a result of an accident.
This is provided the towed vehicle is not towed for reward/remuneration.
Further, the insurance company is also not liable for damages to
the towed vehicle or any property being conveyed thereby. |
