Travel insurance when riding a Scooter and/or a Moped
Scooters are a great way to travel around when you are overseas. They are the perfect way to beat urban congestion, and a fun way to ride. Scooters are not as intimidating or as dangerous as motorbikes, and because of that a lot of people are choosing them as their preferred method of overseas transport.
The rules for scooter travel insurance are the same as the rules for motorcycle travel insurance. It does not matter if you are in Italy or Vietnam, the same rules apply for international scooter travel insurance.
