STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Tired of parking fines and speeding tickets? A Swedish company offers insurance against both, claiming to be the first in the field.
Swedish drivers who register with the Bisso company at the Web site www.bisso.se and pay an annual fee of 850 crowns ($112) are covered against three speeding tickets a year, as long as they are not more than 30 km an hour (19 miles an hour) above the limit.
For an extra fee, drivers can buy cover against parking fines. Fines in Sweden, which has one of the best road safety records in the world, range from 800 to 2000 crowns for speeding and 425 to 700 crowns for parking offences.
"We believe drivers are under economic pressure and there is no room in household budgets to pay fines. We offer economic protection," said Dan Glimmeras, head of marketing at Bisso.
He told Reuters insuring against speeding fines was not illegal, but repeat offenders could still lose their license.
Several thousand people had signed up for the insurance since May, Glimmeras said.; August 11, 2005 2:23 PM
Vitali Zagorodnov said...: What puzzles me is that I cannot find www.income.coop website when I type "NTUC Income" in Google. Other searching engines, like Yahoo search, are fine.

Google search gives as a top link a website of Raymond Chan, a NTUC representetive. This guy must be rich by now!; August 11, 2005 7:16 PM

If you wish to save for 2 years, the best place is to open a saving account. I know that the interest rate is low, but we are not able to earn a higher return to give to you.; August 13, 2005 1:45 AM
Tan Kin Lian said...: Dear Michael Chua,

Thank you for your suggestion. I think that the Traffic Police in Singapore will be unhappy to see such an insurance scheme. They want the drivers to observe the speeding limit.; August 13, 2005 1:46 AM
