Insurance for all in the tyre industry is fast becoming a major problem. Legislation and an increasingly litigious society make it advisable to have the best cover you can, but it’s not always that easy. Premiums have shot through the roof as insurance companies are affected by the downturn in the stock market – it seems that the tyre industry is one sector whose business the insurance companies don’t want. Insurance was one of the topics debated at last year’s NTDA conference, but if retailers think it’s difficult to get cover, spare a thought for the poor retreader.
