Do I need car insurance?
Yes! It is mandatory under the Law of Malaysia for vehicle owners to insure their wheels against the risk of damage to other party's property and for causing death and/or injury to other road users.
Without one, you are not only committing an offence but also vulnerable to financial liability in case somebody claims from you for hitting them!
What can I get from Liberty Third Party Private Car policy?

The third-party car insurance premium
The amount of premium you have to pay may vary depending on a number of risk assessment factors and is also subject to the insurer's underwriting requirements.

Are my passengers protected too?
