What Does Accident Prevention Mean?
Accident prevention refers to any procedure, behavior, or practice that can help prevent various types of losses. Insurance companies support accident prevention and, in fact, some auto insurance providers will even give discounts to drivers who take accident prevention courses.
Insuranceopedia Explains Accident Prevention
Insurance companies support and encourage accident prevention because reducing the occurrence of accidents reduces the number of claims they have to settle. The fewer claims that an insurance company has to settle, the more profitable it will be. Accident prevention courses can often be taken at local Department of Motor Vehicles. However, accident prevention is not just relevant for auto insurance and also applies to a number of other types of insurance, such as property insurance, health insurance, and fire insurance.
