What cover options do they have?

RAA offers one type of cover: comprehensive caravan insurance, including $20 million legal liability insurance. It also offers Travellers Benefits if you are on a driving trip 100km or more from home. These cover emergency transport and accommodation or compensation for the death of a family member on the trip.

What features are included?

What exclusions are there?

As with any insurance policy, there are situations where you will not be compensated. RAA will not cover your caravan for loss or damage caused:

• By not looking after your vehicle. Skipping out on the maintenance of your vehicle can lead to rot, mold, rust or worse. If your caravan wears out from neglect or natural decay over time, RAA won’t cover you.
• If you have unapproved add-ons. Modified your caravan? Put in a state-of-the-art plumbing system for true luxury on the road? Great! But if your insurer hasn’t agreed to the modification, they could refuse to honour any claim you submit.
• If your belongings aren’t securely locked away. A thief who doesn’t have to force their entry into your vehicle or shed to steal your belongings is a thief who’s robbed you of your cover. Your belongings must be completely secure to be insured.
• While being driven in unsafe conditions. This exclusion applies if the driver is under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, or simply is not licenced to drive the vehicle.
• While being used for unlawful purposes. If you know your vehicle is being used to break any rule or regulation, you won’t be able to claim.

What excess do I need to pay?

One or more excesses are payable in the event of a claim in most circumstances. RAA specifies several types of excesses:

• Voluntary excess. This excess is payable whenever any claim is made.
• Non-removable endorsed excess. This may be payable depending on what you agree to when taking out your policy.
• Non-removable theft excess. This is an additional excess payable in the event of a claim following a theft or attempted theft.
• No-fault excess. If RAA judges you to be no more than 50% responsible for an incident and you can provide the contact details and registration details of the person at fault, you may be exempt from paying any excess. This is also true in the case of theft or vandalism if you have a police report with the name of a person charged or convicted of the crime.
• Travellers benefit. No excess applies when claiming any travellers benefit.

How do I make a claim?

RAA explains how to make a claim in two separate situations: after damage or after theft.

After damage:

• Collect details. Write down the names and addresses of everyone involved in the incident, including both drivers and passengers of your and other vehicles.
• Notify the police. The sooner, the better.
• Call RAA immediately on 8202 4575. Contact RAA and explain the claim.
• Do not admit liability. Refrain from admitting guilt, liability or agree to negotiate or settle a claim with anyone else.

After theft:

• Notify the police first. This is extremely important for the success of theft claims.
• Call RAA immediately on 8202 4575. Contact RAA and explain the claim.
• 21-day recovery period. If your caravan isn’t recovered within 21 days, it will be treated as a total loss for insurance purposes. If the caravan is recovered afterwards, RAA will claim ownership.
