The customer overview of Roadside Assistance programs
Australia has a lot of vehicles on the road! We’re a nation used to our own personal and private transport solutions. Vehicles owned when compared with citizens in the country is relatively high compared to other locations around the World. In Australia it is estimated that there are more than 21 million registered vehicles.
An unreliable vehicle or one that fails on the road can often come at the most inconvenient of moments; on the way to a sports game, family event, work or a job interview. Each driver is likely to be a passenger or driving when they require assistance at the roadside during their time behind the wheel. To add peace of mind and solve problems while decreasing the time your vehicle is out of action, roadside assistance programs are used.
Roadside assistance programs help drivers by offering a service. They are often supplied directly by your car insurance brand. A common example is listed below, similar to the service that Digicall Assist proudly provides to brands such as Youi, AAMI and Suncorp.
