This is Thailand not America! Hope she makes a full recovery. I thought she would at least be covered for THb c30,000 as part of the motorbike tax that is paid by the rental company and available for hospital expenses. I have used that myself and wasn't asked for my driving license but I was wearing a helmet. She had neurosurgery. 1.5 million THB sounds right.

One has the option of basic or comprehensive and adding an adventure pack. And sorry to say, the Allian conditions were legitimate and reasonable. Unqualified and irresponsible people cannot expect a third party to pay for the damage they will incur because of their engaging in activities that they should not engage in. As a nurse she should have known that it is a responsible behaviour to wear a helmet. She also had the option of covering the use of a motorbike. For reference sake, this is what her policy says.

More people will think it ok to travel with out insurance, the public will get sick of bailing people out, funds dry up and then even more " woe is me" tales will emerge.

Flustered Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) Latest news is. https://www.gofundme.com/dawns-medical-expeneses Update 24 Posted by Amy Cosgrove 1 hour ago Share 4 Dawn has landed safely and is resting in her room in the Sydney hospital. Addendum. Amazing how many people on that web site think she was riding a "moped" under 50cc. and Allianz are the bad guys. I have never even seen such a beast in Thailand. Some of them need to get their facts right. Edited February 16, 2017 by Flustered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dear old Da used to drive into us the importance of insurance. He said that the day we neglected it would be the day we needed it. No one likes paying out for insurance (and READING the small print) but in this day and age, it's crucial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
