Day 1️⃣9️⃣ of the JOST Advent Calendar and we’re back with another #ThrowbackThursday 🎄🎁 Looking back to when Jannine Burt, our Head of Fleet for UK & Ireland and Truck OE Sales Engineering in the UK, met with Will Shires, Editor of Commercial Motor. The discussion centered on the revolutionary KKS automated trailer, showcasing its innovative design and benefits. As highlighted in Commercial Motor’s headline: “JOST UK reckons its new KKS automated trailer will be an easy sell once operators become aware of its numerous benefits, with perhaps the most important one being its excellent driver safety credentials.” A game-changer for the industry, the KKS automated trailer is setting new standards in efficiency and safety for operators and drivers alike. - JOST World - #jostdoit -

Breaking News for Commercial Fleet Owners in NZ. Delta has launched their Commercial Motor Policy. Initially they are targeting mixed Fleets of 100 units or more. They will cover light motor, heavy motor over 3.5T, Plant and Machinery 🚜 Features: All claims are managed in NZ by Delta ✅ Electric/Hybrid/Hydrogen included ✅ Diesel exhaust fluid/incorrect Fuel ✅ Goods in Transit ✅ Not part of Knock for Knock agreement ✅ I’ll explain the Knock for Knock Agreement. It’s an agreement most insurers are apart of where each Insurer agrees to cover their own policyholders damage irrespective of who was at fault. That means costs are not recouped when you are not liable. Delta will seek costs where a liable party crashes into your vehicle. For large fleets this could result in significant claims savings as money is recouped! Lower claim costs results in better premiums. This Insurance nerd is excited about this! A new insurer and new capacity is great, we like choice! Get in touch to learn more. Great work Delta Insurance Group and wishing you success.
