Be Safe!!! 🄶 It’s cold & we all want to stay warm — but having hot tea/coffee while driving is a dangerous distraction! Imagine it spills on your laps… what happens next? Losing focus for even a second can cost lives. Stay safe. Stay focused.

When paying for car insurance, ask your agent to align it with your vehicle’s registration date. That way, your insurance and road tax run in the same quarter — less hassle, more convenience Forgot your road tax expiry? We will remind you!
