If you’ve ever been in a road\u00a0accident (though we seriously hope you never find yourself in that situation) legal formalities aren’t the only thing you have to worry about especially if your car needs to be repaired. Your transportation for the new few days becomes a thing of concern.\u00a0Your options are\u00a0public transport or Uber, right? But this won’t be the case in the new year.<\/p>\n

According to new motor insurance rules for the UAE, drivers will\u00a0be provided with replacement veh\u00adicles after an accident. This unified\u00a0vehicle insurance policy will make it compulsory\u00a0for\u00a0insurance companies to provide policyholders with compensation equivalent to the cost for a replacement car after an accident for a maximum of 10 days and a value of up to AED 300 per day.<\/p>\n

The new regulation will also see\u00a0liability coverage extend to spouses,\u00a0children and parents, will\u00a0enable\u00a0insurers and their customers to resort to experts to resolve disputes and give motorists clarity on\u00a0when a car must be written off by an insurer.<\/p>\n

Lastly, it will\u00a0allow\u00a0good drivers to obtain discounts on their insurance premiums and drivers with poor records to be made to pay more (just what those tailgaters and speed maniacs\u00a0could do with – we’re pretty sure they are the\u00a0cause of most\u00a0accidents).<\/p>\n
