About hail damage car insurance
Hail can be incredibly destructive to cars, and without hail damage car insurance you could be left seriously out of pocket when a hailstorm strikes.
Severe storms can whip up surprisingly quickly, and when they bring hail, the damage to a car that’s out in the open can be severe.
In Australia, hailstones can sometimes be bigger than a cricket ball, and the Bureau of Meteorology says when hail reaches that size it can hit the ground at more than 200 kilometres per hour, with enough force to break roof tiles.
So it’s fair to say hail has the potential to do some serious damage to your car.
Getting caught on the road during a hailstorm – or knowing your car is parked in the open and about to be pummelled by hail – can be extremely stressful. Australia is likely to experience more frequent, and potentially more severe, hailstorms in the future, according to an international study led by a UNSW Sydney researcher.
This makes it important to know if you have hail damage car insurance.
