ead with interest CM's news Port (March 2) on a driver's nefit being cut after an cident in Saudi Arabia.
It is exactly to cater for inrnational drivers' require3r-its that we launched our infidrive total driver protection heme last year.
Apart from giving legal costs to £10,000 in any one claim, ibscribers are given up to
1 5,000 cover against .cidental death, and 40 per ,nt of declared earnings can be itained for up to two years in
e event of accidental tempory disablement.
We have confirmed with the %derwriters of Confidrive how ey would treat a claim in the rcumstances CM reported. -iere would definitely be an lowable claim within 12 onths of such an accident king place and they would ok most sympathetically at a aim up to two years after the :cident if irrefutable medical iidence was obtained.
Today, therefore, such an nfortunate driver might be :ceiving up to 40 per cent of is declared income by way of enefit instead of perhaps suf:ring both personal hardship nd humiliation.
Confidrive covers subribing members of the Freight irivers' Register (the associaon for British professional reight drivers) who work %roughout the British Isles, all f Western and Eastern Europe, he Middle East states and ountries bordering the Aediterranean. We are very iroud of Confidrive. which epresents one of our greatest ireakthroughs in our search for otal service to professionals.
