Along the coastline south of Carmel, the highway is literally hewn from the cliffs. “Island” above is really Point Sur, made famous by Robinson Jeffers in his “The Women of Point Sur.”

Personal Accident Insurance

You may go through life without being in a traffic accident, or you may be involved in a traffic mishap and escape injury. But the statistics are not in your favor. You may be unfortunate enough to become a “statistic” in police or hospital records.

In these days of heavy traffic, even the most careful driver may be involved in an accident; and police and hospital records show that traffic crashes today result in more serious personal injuries than ever before.

That is why the California State Automobile Association has added extra value to CSAA membership, and is now issuing a Certificate of Personal Accident Insurance providing greater protection to members than heretofore. As in the past, this Personal Accident Insurance is included in your membership without extra charge. Beginning July 1 last year, the new certificates were issued to members as they renewed their memberships, and to new members as they were enrolled.

Continuous membership of three years or more maintains the maximum benefits provided by new Personal Accident Insurance.

This new Personal Accident coverage increases in value over the first three years of membership on condition that membership is continuous. The increased benefits remain in effect contingent on continued prompt renewal of membership over the years. For members with three or more years of consecutive membership, maximum coverage became effective for the current membership year upon issuance of the new insurance certificate.
