What scooter OCTA does not cover and how to complement it

Scooter OCTA compensates the damage you cause to others while riding: to a pedestrian, another vehicle or property belonging to others. It does not cover your own injuries or damage to the scooter itself. If you ride a lot and fast, consider accident insurance, which pays for treatment and the consequences of injuries regardless of who is at fault.

Scooters are increasingly part of travel too: a rental scooter is a convenient way to explore a city, but falls on them are among the most common reasons travellers need medical help abroad. Latvian OCTA will not help you with a rental scooter in another country, so take out travel insurance before the trip and check that the chosen cover includes riding a scooter.
