Summer holidays are almost over, and soon thousands of children will head back to school. For many families, that also means daily bike rides, heavy schoolbags, busy traffic and chilly mornings.
This makes it the perfect moment to check whether your insurance policies are still in line with your family’s needs.
Bicycle insurance: peace of mind on the road
For many students, the bicycle is the main way to get to school. But what if the bike is stolen, vandalised or damaged in an accident?
A bicycle insurance policy gives you peace of mind and protects you against unexpected costs. With the growing use of electric bikes, this protection is more relevant than ever.
Tip: Did your child receive a new bike for the school year? Let’s check together if bicycle insurance would be useful.
Accident insurance: security when mishaps happen
A fall on the way to school, a collision in the playground, or an injury during sports class… accidents happen quickly. An accident insurance policy covers medical expenses and helps reduce the financial impact.
Keep in mind that the school’s insurance usually provides only limited coverage. A private accident insurance can be a valuable supplement.
Family liability insurance: protection for everyone
What if your child accidentally drops a friend’s smartphone, or damages a parked car while cycling? Family liability insurance covers accidental damage caused to others, a small investment that can prevent big expenses.
A few back-to-school tips
-
Check your policies: are your children’s and bicycles’ details still correct?
-
Write down your bike’s frame number: essential if theft occurs.
-
Talk about traffic safety at home: a helmet and fluorescent vest remain the best protection.
-
Keep all important documents (insurance policies, proof of purchase) safely stored.
