Insurance
In the Netherlands, Stuyf vehicles and the BSO bus must be insured at least for third-party liability. A special Stuyf insurance policy has been developed together with insurer Steijnborg Assurantiën.
When purchasing the Stuyf or BSO bus (in the Netherlands), you can indicate on the order form whether you wish to insure the vehicle with Steijnborg Assurantiën or with an insurer of your own choice. If you choose Steijnborg, we will apply for the insurance in advance. Upon delivery, your Stuyf or BSO bus will be insured and ready to drive immediately after completing driver training.
When you choose lease (Pickup or Cargo) or a subscription (BSO bus), insurance is included in the monthly fee. Upon delivery, the vehicle is insured and ready to drive immediately after completing driver training.
Coverage
The insurance provides third-party and comprehensive coverage. Both third-party and vehicle damage are covered. A deductible applies to vehicle damage.
The BSO bus insurance also includes personal injury (SVI) coverage, with a maximum insured sum of €1,000,000. The fixed policy period runs from May 1 to May 1 of each year.
The insurer determines the insurance premium based on the vehicle’s intended use, such as transporting children, package delivery, or municipal cleaning duties.
Terms
The insurer sets the following conditions for driving the Stuyf or BSO bus:
- A BSO bus driver must be at least 18 years old. For the Stuyf, that age is 16.
- A driver must have successfully completed theory and practical driving training focused on the Stuyf or BSO bus. This driver training can be requested from Stichting Veilig door het Verkeer. More information on driver training for the Pickup and Cargo and for the BSO bus.
- Annual maintenance for the BSO bus is required.
- The law also requires drivers of the Stuyf Pickup and Cargo to have at least an AM or B driver’s license and wear an approved (NTA 8776) moped or speed pedelec helmet.
