Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Dangers of driving abroad

Notes: Sumario: Driving can be a risky business at the best of times. According to the World Health Organization, 1.35 million people die each year as a result of road traffic crashes, while between 20 and 50 million more suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring a disability as a result of their injury. And when driving abroad, there are different rules and cultural norms to consider, unfamiliar roads to navigate, different weather and maybe even the need to drive on the opposite side of the road. As such, risk can be even higher and the need for comprehensive insurance is, essentially, non-negotiable. Speaking to industry experts, ITIJ set out to pinpoint the key risks facing drivers abroad, explore the insurance cover available to them and investigate how travel insurers are working to increase awareness around the dangers of driving abroad and developing products to enhance consumer education.Related records: En: International Travel & Health Insurance Journal. - Bristol, UK : Voyageur Publishing & Events Ltd., 2020- = ISSN 2055-1215. - 02/11/2020 Número 238 - noviembre 2020 , p. 42-46Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro de asistencia en viaje Conducción Accidentes de tráfico Asistencia en viaje Coberturas Other categories: 344.3
