Public Liability Insurance

Any thoughts on whether its worth it? Teesside Autodrome let you have more access if you have it, do other places/events, or is it an apply to each one individually job?

I would have thought,

that if you are just taking a few personal shots then no,

but if you are being paid and the shots and they may not be as good as you said they would be and the payee decides to sue, using a tripod where someone could trip over it, or even your bag of gear. If you are setting up a make shift studio that may collapse onto someone etc. A strong flash may cause some short blindness or a migraine and a person might blame you and try it on. 

Depending on cost of the insurance, would it be worth it for more access?

Not sure if any good for other events if you are attending as a public member just taking photos.

Interested any others thoughts.

I think you should look at cost - value of worth may vary greatly depending on your photography lifestyle.

had a look on their site.

dose it not mean for racing or is it to cover you if you are hit while you are photographing??

I did some photography for a sailing club and if I just sat on shore taking pictures that was OK but if I boarded a boat and went out sailing in order to get better action shots I did need insurance.

Public Liability Insurance doesn't cover 'customer satisfaction', but it should cover all the other things you mentioned?
