Let’s explore the last one because we (obviously) think PD is a top-notch insurance provider you should seriously consider!
What does PD mean in car insurance?
‘What is the PD meaning in car insurance’ is easily answered. PD Insurance means Preferred Drivers Insurance (for our pet insurance it stands for Pets Deserve Insurance). We have three types of car insurance for preferred drivers: comprehensive car insurance, third party fire and theft, and third party property damage.
Insurance providers like to work with customers who are lower risk, hence them being preferred. Some drivers are safer than others due to their age, gender, driving habits and other circumstances. These risk factors are why car insurance is more expensive for young drivers, for instance.
PD Insurance knows who we want as our Preferred Drivers and we give them great premiums.
We need to make sure we have enough bandwidth to provide top notch service to our customers, to settle claims quickly and easily, and to pay our quality employees to provide quality support. Fewer claims means greater satisfaction for everyone – us and you.
Speaking of greater customer satisfaction, PD Insurance now covers roadside assistance. So we can help you out right in your moment of need. Before we move onto helping you with your car insurance claim.

We’re an Australian insurance provider based locally, in Newcastle NSW. PD entered the car insurance market well over a decade ago to shake things up.
