Does your auto insurance in Elmira Heights NY cover you in the event of malicious damage or a road rage attack that causes damage to your vehicle? If you have comprehensive insurance you could make a claim but neither incident would be considered a collision. Baseball bats and other implements can inflict serious damage to a vehicle so if your vehicle is of value, comprehensive insurance is worth paying for.

Of course, it’s better to keep out of the way of aggressive motorists and those who would damage your vehicle in the first place so here are some safety tips:

• When parking your vehicle at night, park in a well lit area if possible.
• When driving, be courteous to other road users. Indicate when turning, don’t cut in front of other motorists, don’t drive very slowly in the fast lane and always ensure your brake lights are working!
• If you spot an aggressive or angry driver behind you, don’t try to make a point about your right to use the road too – pull over when you can and let them go past. If they continue to follow behind you and you think they mean you harm, drive into a police station car park or some other place where you can get help quickly.

Driving on busy roads in peak hour traffic can be very stressful. So can high insurance premiums. If you’re a driver in Elmira Heights NY and you’d like to reduce your stress level with a cheaper auto insurance premium call Stewart Insurance today.
