Frequently asked questions
-
What's the difference between covers?
The three most common types of insurance are third party, third party fire & theft, and comprehensive.
Third Party
Covers damage caused by your car to someone else's vehicle or property.
Third Party, Fire & Theft
Covers damage caused by your car to someone else's vehicle or property, as well as cover for if your car is damaged by fire or stolen.
Comprehensive
Covers damage to your car, as well as damage caused by your car to someone else's vehicle or property, and cover if your car is stolen or damaged by fire.
We offer two levels of comprehensive insurance. Check the comparison table to see the benefits for each type of cover that we offer. -
What's the difference between CTP and Third Party insurance?
Compulsory Third Party (CTP) covers your costs for the injuries of any other person hurt in an accident that involves your car. RAA doesn't offer CTP. It's compulsory to choose a CTP insurer when you pay your car registration and is entirely separate to Third Party insurance.
Third Party insurance covers damage caused by your car to someone else's car or property. RAA does offer Third Party insurance. You may want to have RAA Car Insurance in addition to CTP. -
Am I covered if I accidentally scratch my car?
Our Comprehensive Car Insurance includes cover for when you accidentally damage your car. We'll cover the cost of the repair for the incident, you'll just need to pay us any excesses that apply to you.
Check the Product Disclosure Statement for limits and exclusions. -
Do I have to pay an excess if an accident wasn't my fault?
No, you won't need to pay an excess if we decide you were not 'at fault' for an accident.
If you're not 'at fault' it means you could provide us with the details of who caused the accident, and after an investigation we decide that person's actions were the main cause, and not yours.
When no one is at fault like in a hail storm or if a tree falls on your car, or if you can't identify who caused the accident (e.g. if they hit your car in a carpark but didn't stop or leave a note) you'll still need to pay us any excesses that apply to you.
Check the Product Disclosure Statement for more information.
