Mobility scooter insurance and power chair insurance is not required by law because these machines are not subject to the Road Traffic Act. However, it is highly recommended by the Department of Transport to cover you against any loss or liability. For example, if you damage another vehicle or injure someone while using your scooter, without insurance you would have to pay for the damage to be repaired, or pay compensation to the person you have injured, out of your own pocket.
On new machines our Mechanical / Electrical breakdown cover starts once the manufacturer’s warranty expires.
On non-new or second-hand machines, the cover is effective 45 days after the inception date of the policy.
We would recommend this for your personal peace of mind. Otherwise – what will you do if your vehicle breaks down while you are out and about? Could you get yourself and your vehicle home?
Yes, for up to 45 days in any policy year, excluding North America. You do not have to advise us in advance.
