Car insurance companies have a different definition for the word “comprehensive”.
by: Christine Zafra
In the English dictionary, the word comprehensive means “complete, full and all-inclusive”. However, car insurance companies are really redefining the term to fit it in their definition of “comprehensive”. Since car insurances are literally stripping the policy holders one by one of the coverage of their insurance plans, comprehensive coverage is pretty much just a label to go by. The basics such as third party liability or perhaps, coverage for short term overseas trips are mysteriously disappearing from the written policy papers. Shattered windscreens are in fact not included in the policies and you can only get it as an add-on. This insurance thing is becoming a business, and insurance companies are doing pretty well.
