Whilst the media debates the effects of our “carbon footprint” in many areas of our lives, and the government bring in Lower Emission Zones in London, very few people have discussed the impact of other vehicles on the road. However, that has all changed in the area of Touring Caravans. The National Caravan Council revealed that the area of Touring Caravans has been largely neglected but as there are now well over half a million on the road, The NCC have set up a website dedicated to the issue, www.greencaravanning.co.uk.
Making 3rd party touring caravan insurance compulsory may sound ridiculous. The main reason for this may be because 3rd party cover, in respect of a caravan, is automatically covered under a standard motor car insurance policy whilst being towed. The touring caravan may be at its highest risk whilst towing but there are also many other 3rd party risks that would not be covered if you haven’t purchased touring caravan insurance.
