Best Coverage Options
Motor
vehicles may be insured under a staggering number of categories, which may
be summarized like this:
Private
Insurance
should be chosen when the vehicle is used for social, domestic purposes or
personal commuting only
Commercial
Insurance
should be chosen when the vehicle is used for commercial traveling, motor
trade or general business use.
Note
that some vehicles such as pickups or cabs are generally regarded as
commercial type due to their model despite the use. In such case, if the
vehicle is still used only for personal use and you require private cover,
you may indicate this to your underwriter and concessions may be allowed on
an individual basis.
Third
Party
Insurance is
the most basic form of auto insurance available. It is compulsory to have at
least this form of insurance on any road vehicle.
This
may be chosen for you depending on the age of your vehicle

focus of third party insurance is to provide insurance for damage to the
other party i.e. damage to your vehicle is excluded.
