Every person who buys a new vehicle makes sure they get it insured. Getting your vehicles insured is mandatory and much useful to recover the damages occurred during accidents. This is known as comprehensive insurance. The damages recovered depends on the cover opted. So a general car insurance in UAE covers your car damages by not letting you suffer the financial loss.
A comprehensive insurance covers the vehicle that is insured, but what if there is no damage to your insured vehicle and you create severe damage to other vehicles or person? During such circumstances, you have to bear all the damages occurred to another vehicle/persons, personally.
