🎉 MIB at 80 - September 1946 Our journey through the world MIB was born into continues, and September highlights a motoring essential that drivers still rely on today. 📅 September 1946 By 1946, windscreen wipers were becoming a standard feature on most vehicles, but many were still vacuum-powered. This meant they could slow down, or even temporarily stop, when the driver accelerated uphill, leaving motorists to peer through a rain-soaked windscreen until they eased off the throttle! Follow along each month as we uncover more moments from 1946 throughout MIB's 80th anniversary year. #DriveInsured

As winter approaches, travel disruptions are all too common🚆🍂❄️ If your train is cancelled due to leaves on the line or your bus is delayed by flooding, you might find yourself reaching for the car keys instead. Before you drive, make sure you’re properly insured: 🚗Borrowing someone else’s car? Check your policy allows you to drive other vehicles — or arrange temporary cover before setting off. 🏢Driving your own car to work? If your policy only includes Social, Domestic and Pleasure use, you won’t be covered for commuting. 💼Heading to a meeting or work event? Even if you’re covered for commuting, you still need business use cover for these trips. When in doubt, always check with your insurer to confirm you’re properly protected. Driving without insurance is never worth the risk. #DriveInsured
