Bandung and its surrounding areas\u2014from Cimahi to Padalarang to Rancaekek\u2014are among the most active industrial and logistics areas in West Java. Hundreds of company operational vehicles travel back and forth daily: from delivery vans and distribution trucks to staff and technician vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n This high mobility makes the risk of accidents, theft and vehicle damage very high.<\/span> \u201cWe already have vehicle insurance!\u201d \u2014 sentences like this are often said in a harsh tone.frustrationby business owners after their claims were denied or only partially paid.<\/span><\/p>\n The problem is not with the insurance, but with a lack of understanding of the contents of the policy and errors in managing the vehicle insurance program.<\/span><\/p>\n This is why many companies are now starting to entrust their vehicle protection to PT. Liberty and General Insurance Broker (L&G) \u2014 a professional insurance broker who sides with the interests of clients, not insurance companies.<\/span><\/p>\n Take PT. Maju Lancar Logistics, a building materials distribution company operating in the Leuwigajah industrial area, Cimahi.<\/span> One night, one of the trucks had an accident on the downhill route to Padalarang. The truck overturned, scattering its cargo. The damage was extensive\u2014the truck’s body was crushed, and the driver was injured.<\/span><\/p>\n Management immediately reported to the insurance company, but their claim was rejected.<\/span> In addition, it was found that the insurance policy did not cover cargo and did not include the risk of third party liability (TPL).<\/span> L&G noted that 8 out of 10 companies in Bandung face similar issues. Here are some of the most common mistakes:<\/span><\/p>\n Many companies simply purchase a \u201cstandard\u201d policy without considering the actual function of the vehicle.<\/span> Even though commercial vehicles always carry goods and interact with the public on the road.<\/span> This administrative problem often occurs in companies with many vehicles.<\/span> Some companies lower the coverage value to make premiums cheaper.<\/span> Many companies do not have an integrated vehicle registration and insurance system.<\/span> A property company in Dago Pakar, Bandung, has five operational cars used to transport marketing teams and project surveys.<\/span> When the claim was submitted, the insurance company refused on the grounds that the driver was not a permanent employee and the driver’s license had expired.<\/span> Following the incident, management decided to collaborate with PT. Liberty and General Insurance Broker (L&G).<\/span> L&G helps renew the entire vehicle insurance program, adding appropriate coverage, and ensuring any operational risks are fully covered.<\/span><\/p>\n As a professional and independent insurance broker, L&G has a working system that focuses on comprehensive protection, cost efficiency, and ease of claims.<\/span><\/p>\n The following approaches were taken:<\/span><\/p>\n L&G started by risk mapping the entire fleet:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This step ensures that the policy is adapted to the realities on the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n Based on the audit results, L&G prepared a package that includes:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n L&G tendered premiums to various large insurance companies in Indonesia.<\/span> When an accident occurs, L&G acts as the client’s official representative in the claims process:<\/span> L&G provides a Digital Insurance Register system, containing a list of vehicles, policy status, validity period, and insurance value.<\/span> Many companies in Bandung still consider vehicle insurance as an administrative obligation, not a financial protection strategy.<\/span> Worse still, without TPL (Third Party Liability) protection, the company could face lawsuits if the vehicle causes damage to another party.<\/span><\/p>\n With an insurance broker like L&G, these risks can be carefully managed through the design of specific, realistic, and profitable insurance programs.<\/span><\/p>\n Here are the reasons why many commercial, logistics, and industrial companies in Bandung entrust their vehicle insurance programs to L&G:<\/span><\/p>\n A consumer goods distribution company in Rancaekek has 25 vehicles.<\/span> After L&G conducted an audit, it was found that:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n L&G restructured its entire program, combining motor insurance and TPL into one master contract, and negotiating collective premiums with several major insurance companies.<\/span> A few months later, one of the vehicles was involved in a major accident, and the claim of Rp 220 million was paid in full within 30 days.<\/span><\/p>\n Operational cars and trucks are the lifeblood of a business. Once damaged or lost, the impact can cause major disruptions to a company’s supply chain and cash flow.<\/span><\/p>\n Unfortunately, many entrepreneurs in Bandung only understand the importance of proper insurance design after their claims are rejected.<\/span> With PT. Liberty and General Insurance Broker (L&G), you get commercial vehicle protection that really works when you need it.<\/span><\/p>\n Do you have a fleet of operational vehicles in Bandung, Cimahi, Rancaekek, or Padalarang?<\/span>
\n<\/span>But surprisingly, many companies in Bandung only realized that their vehicles were not actually covered by insurance after the incident occurred.<\/span><\/p>\nLogistics Truck Overturns in Cimahi, Claim Rejected<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/span>They have a fleet of 12 trucks operating daily to deliver cement, iron, and materials to various construction projects in Greater Bandung.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>The reason: the truck was used outside the coverage area (Bandung\u2013Cimahi), while the accident occurred in the Cianjur area.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>Ultimately, the company covered all repair and compensation costs, amounting to more than IDR 250 million.<\/span><\/p>\nCommon Problems Often Faced by Bandung Companies in Vehicle Insurance<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
\n<\/span>For example: a vehicle that was originally only for office purposes is actually used for long-distance logistics operations, but the policy is still written <\/span>private use only<\/span><\/i>.<\/span>
\n<\/span>When an accident occurs outside the area, the claim may be rejected.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n<\/span>Without <\/span>Cargo Insurance<\/span><\/i> And <\/span>Third Party Liability (TPL)<\/span><\/i>, the company can be asked for large compensation if it causes losses to other parties.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n<\/span>Policies can expire without you realizing it, and vehicles that were assumed to be \u201ccovered\u201d may turn out to be no longer covered.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n<\/span>However, when a vehicle is severely damaged, the compensation value received is far below market value \u2014 leaving the owner to cover the difference.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n<\/span>As a result, during audits or claims, there is confusion between vehicles being active, sold, or damaged.<\/span><\/p>\nAnother Case Example: Operational Cars for Property Companies in Dago<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/span>One of the cars had an accident in the middle of the road due to heavy rain.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>Repair losses reached Rp. 120 million \u2014 all of which was borne by the company itself.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>L&G then conducted an audit and found that:<\/span><\/p>\n\n
