Insurance policy launched to protect against uninsured drivers

Individuals looking to take out insurance on their Nissan Navara pickup may be interested to hear about a new policy from Hastings Direct.
The insurance broker has announced the launch of its new fully comprehensive cover, which claims to protect against being hit by an uninsured driver.
According to the company, people will be covered if such an incident occurs or they suffer vandalism, with no extra cost added to their premium.
Head of new business at Hastings Direct Shaun Law said: "UK motorists are facing a tough enough financial burden with rising fuel prices etc. without having to be worried about the significant financial hardship that being hit by an uninsured driver can cause."
It is estimated there are 1.5 million people in Britain who get behind the wheel even though they do not have cover.
However, with the company's new policy individuals will not have to worry about losing their no-claims bonus or having to fork out for repairs, Mr Law claimed.
DirectGov notes each policy has an additional £30 premium added on in order to cover the estimated £380 million lost through people driving without insurance.
