刚到澳洲不久,准备提车,急切想了解澳洲的汽车保险问题。
1:Rego 里包含一个Compulsory Third Party.据说这个是保第三方的人身伤害.
CTP Personal Injury Insurance:
Covers passengers, pedestrians, cyclists and other road users
Covers injuries to the driver proportionally according to degree of fault - unless driver is entirely at fault
Provides cover 24 hours a day, Australia-wide
Provides compensation for reasonable medical and hospital costs and other related expenses
Provides compensation for lost time at work (greater than seven days)
May provide a lump sum payment for non-economic loss (eg loss of function; pain and suffering)
Compensation may be reduced for victims who ignore certain basic road rules
Does not cover damage to vehicles or other property
3. 只保自己的车出现损失的情况。出现事故后,你的保险公司会补偿你的损失。跟谁开车关系不大。跟comprehensive car insurance相类似的是fire, theft and legal liability,即火灾、盗窃及三者险保障中的fire & theft。Fire & Theft即仅限车辆起火和遭盗抢导致的损失,而comprehensive的保障则不仅限于这两类损失,包括了碰撞等原因导致的损失。
怎么买保险取决于车的情况,一般如果是新车,都会买comprehensive加third party liability,如果是比较破的二手车,很多人都只买third party liability,因为comprehensive的保费比较贵,要是都买的话可能几年的保费都够买辆车了,这样比较不值,所以宁可自己承担自己车辆的损失。如果觉得一点保障都没有,或者觉得担心车辆起火或遭盗抢,也可以买那个fire, theft & legal liability的。
总结一句,TAC是必须的,THIRD PARTY LIABILITY是必备的,剩下COMPREHENSIVE / FIRE & THEFT / NOTHING 是自己根据情况决定就行了的。
