Your car is a big purchase item so it makes sense to only have it repaired at an #accreditedworkshop as they meet & comply with a high level of criteria & set standards. Accreditation criteria includes diagnostic equipment, waste removal, training for staff, parking facilities,
1
lighting & ventilation among many things. The most important benefit of using an accredited workshop is knowing that there is an association you can deal with in the event of bad service or poor workmanship. @AutomobilSA @road_driving

If you’ve had any life or work changes, let your insurer know as this could affect your cover and premium payments. @SAIA01 @_ArriveAlive @AASouthAfrica @AutomobilSA @road_driving @TrafficRTMC #InsuranceTuesday #TuesdayMotivation

Shopping around might take a bit of time but it empowers you with knowledge to make better financial & insurance cover choices. @Hippo_co_za @PriceCheck_SA @SAIA01 @insuranceombud @road_driving #InsuranceTuesday #TuesdayMotivation

There are several factors that could affect your insurance premiums, so getting a new quote every year from your current insurer as well as a quote from another insurer is a good idea. @Hippo_co_za @PriceCheck_SA #InsuranceTuesdays #TuesdayMotivation

Cruise control can be used to automatically control the speed of your vehicle, by taking your foot off the accelerator but you still control the vehicle by steering and braking. #MidweekDrivingSchool #driving #KeaDrive @_ArriveAlive @road_driving @AutomobilSA

NOT READING FINE PRINT: Read the Insurance contract so you KNOW & UNDERSTAND exactly what you're covered for. Know the other benefits eg Towing, Roadside Assistance, Car Rental etc. Even if you have comprehensive insurance cover understand all that it covers. #InsuranceTuesday

⚫LYING ON YOUR POLICY: Lying on your insurance policy or claim could result in denial of coverage. The principle of Utmost Good Faith dictates that you have a legal obligation to be honest and accurate in the information you give and
1
the insurance company must also be honest in its dealing with you the insured. Lying or omitting some information could cost you. #InsuranceTuesday #TuesdayMotivation @SAIA01 @_ArriveAlive @road_driving @IIGauteng @AutomobilSA @insuranceombud

RESEARCH AND SHOP AROUND FOR AN INSURANCE POLICY: There are a number of companies offering insurance products, compare the terms & conditions until you get one that suits your needs & pocket. Remember to negotiate. A car dealership should not force an insurance contract on you.

Also use @PriceCheck_SA or @Hippo_co_za to compare prices. Ask your banker/Financial advisor. Lastly ask friends & relatives. @SAIA01 @insuranceombud @AutomobilSA @_ArriveAlive @road_driving @TrafficRTMC @IIGauteng

To drive safely, you need space all around your vehicle. When things go wrong, space gives you time to think and to take action. @FleetForum @ntsa_kenya @TV47KE @AmEugeneAnangwe @SamGititu @Milele_FM @UNRSC @unhabitatyouth @FIAFdn @NyanzaTraffic @Ma3Route @mosesmk @RoadAlertsKE – at Nairobi, Kenya

Using the wrong engine oil can be a costly mistake that can lead to anything from decreased engine performance to, in extreme cases, severe engine damage. @TrafficRTMC @UnitedTowingSA @_ArriveAlive @road_driving @TotalSAfrica @Caltexsa @Castrol_SA @AutomobilSA @BP_SouthAfrica

Check your oil at least once a month as this will minimise the risk of your engine running out of oil and seizing up @_ArriveAlive @road_driving @TrafficRTMC @UnitedTowingSA @GP_CommSafety
