Tryg Forsikring has issued warnings to owners of motorhomes, caravans, and vintage cars regarding the risks of winter vehicle storage. The company notes that while many owners de-register vehicles to avoid state traffic insurance fees, doing so automatically terminates mandatory liability insurance and coverage for driver and passenger accidents.

Even when stationary, vehicles remain vulnerable to theft, moisture, and rodents. To mitigate these issues, experts recommend cleaning vehicles thoroughly, removing food and valuables, and emptying water systems to prevent frost damage. Owners are also cautioned to ensure proper ventilation and to remember to re-register vehicles in the spring to avoid driving illegally.
