Recreational Vehicle (RV) owners are a special breed. They love to take to the highway because they know traveling is more than just a means to get from point “A” to point “B.” RV owners know the journey means as much as the destination. While RV’ers enjoy being on the road and getting away, many mistakenly assume that RV insurance is about the same as car insurance.
In fact, if you don’t have proper insurance for your RV, you may face financial hardship if you should have an accident.
WHAT MAKES RV INSURANCE UNIQUE?
RV Insurance is like two policies in one: it protects your vehicle like car insurance and it also protects your living area like home insurance.
Collision and road emergencies are definite risks to insure against. But when you are camping or parked, your RV becomes your home and needs to be protected against theft, fire, liability and other disasters.
Insurance for motor homes is specially designed to protect people that travel. And because your vehicle is usually larger than others, you should have greater liability coverage than standard autos, and isn’t the only coverage option you should consider.
WHO NEEDS RV INSURANCE?
There are several classes of recreational vehicles and they each need special insurance:
STANDARD MOTORHOME INSURANCE
Standard insurance policy coverage will depend on your RV. Units that are motorized need the same kind of coverage as your car. If you only plan to vacation once or twice a year, you may be able to get by with seasonal coverage. Trailer RVs will need insurance coverage for damage, both on and off the road.
