Road Warrior

It happens. Get protected.Gain a driving partner every time you get on the road. It is not uncommon for some of us to spend between 2 to 4 hours on the road every day. That works out to between 12% to 25% of the total time that we are awake! These figures of course do not take into account the times when our cars breakdown or when we are unfortunate enough to meet with an accident.What You Should Know - 
The High Accident RatesIt is a sad fact that the total number of road accidents in Malaysia exceeded 328,000* in 2005. On the average, 16* persons died from these road accidents, every single day in 2005, let alone the even higher numbers who have suffered injury or disablement.When The Unxepected HappensOn a lighter note, each of us driving a car would have experienced some form of a breakdown before, be it punctured tyres, batteries gone ‘kaput’ or some form of irritating mechanical failure. While we don’t lose life or limb in such circumstance, imagine the inconvenience when we do suffer such a breakdown either on the highway or in some remote place. Within a blink of an eye, three tow truck operators (maybe more) will appear as if by magic. You probably would not want to be at their mercy but without protection, what choice do you have?The Road Warrior Comes To Your RescueAt Allianz General Insurance Company (Malaysia) Berhad "AGIC", we recognise and understand the needs of private car owners and the problems they face.
