Re: New motor insurance law to affect all vehicles
What will be the rate of the insurance cost per year for the expat?
At a wild guess 100% more then quoted.

Comprehensive for a car was about $350, cheap compared to the alternative.

I don't see the comparison with the above $350 to the quoted $80 above.

A few weeks ago a expat on his moto was hit by a Cambodian car. Leaving him on the road with a broken leg. The driver of the car drove away. You would presume the driver didn't have insurance. Or this is just the norm.

lol - The locals will avoid insurance like the plague. Hit and run is the game. The fuckers need educating first with driving skills.
