Protection From "The Dirty Dozen" - Flash! You're Out!
FLASHGUARD FROM FLUX WILL KEEP YOU MOBILE
Disqualification. It doesn't bear thinking about. But as cameras
become computerised convictions are rising, even amongst otherwise
careful drivers who can be caught by a momentary lapse, or intimidated
to speed by a tailgater. If you've already picked up a few points
for, say, parking in the wrong place, then that first speeding offence
could see them pushed past the 'dirty dozen', bringing a fine and,
worse, a ban. One flash and you're out.
Now Adrian Flux Insurance has developed 'Flashguard', a scheme to
subsidise the extra travel costs that come in the wake of a speeding
conviction. It is designed to keep drivers mobile and protect their
work and family lives.
"Disqualification can ruin the lives of otherwise careful drivers in a
flash, and that's who we've developed Flashguard for," explains Gerry
Bucke of Flux. "It covers the cost of alternative transport, such as
taxis and trains, for all the policyholder's needs, from the school
run to driving to work to making service calls."
In order to qualify for the scheme drivers must have no more than six
points current or pending and they must not have been disqualified for
any offence during the previous 12 months. Naturally drink and
drugs-related convictions are not covered, nor are those directly
associated with dangerous or reckless driving convictions.
"Flashguard does not condone stupidity or dangerous driving," says
Gerry Bucke. "But we can all make mistakes. This policy means that
careful drivers who are convicted of speeding can carry on with their
lives, albeit more slowly!"
The policy pays up to £6,000 for alternative transport costs and the
premium costs just £50 per year.
