MESSAGE FROM Robin Campaniano AIG Hawaii Always Looking Out For You Summer can be anything but fun for Hawaii drivers.  According to federal statistics, summer is the deadliest time of the year for motorists across the country, including Hawaii.  In the Islands, traffic-accident deaths rise nearly 25 percent in June, July and August compared with the rest of the year, according to a recent review of statewide statistics. Your safety is something that we take very seriously.  That’s why we’ve launched a new program called.  AIG Hawaii DriveSafe.  This program encourages safe driving in our community by rewarding customers who maintain safe driving records.  One of the many benefits that we are pleased to offer is a merit discount on your auto insurance premium for every year of safe driving, up to six years.  DriveSafe also protects you if you get into an accident by helping to lower surcharges and increases in auto insurance payments.  So, the longer you maintain a safe driving record, the greater the discount and savings on your auto insurance premium.  You can learn more about AIG Hawaii DriveSafe in this issue of Protecting Your Tomorrow. Using a cell phone is something that many of us take for granted.  It’s become a convenient way to do business and to stay in touch with family and friends.  Everyone is well aware of the dangers of using a cell phone while driving, but did you know that it’s also dangerous to use a cell phone while pumping gas? In response to recent cell phone related fires on the Mainland, we’ve provided you with some safe refueling tips. You’ll find these safety tips on the back page of this newsletter. And finally, I’m pleased to report that we recently held our latest Hot Spots, speeding awareness event. We’ve been doing Hot Spots since 2002 and have identified 30 dangerous speeding areas in our community.  For our July event, AIG Hawaii employees joined more than 150 students and teachers from Fern Elementary School in Kalihi to increase community awareness about speeding.  The Honolulu Police Department has long been a supporter of Hot Spots and we were honored to have acting Chief of Police Glen Kajiyama help us deliver the message that safe driving benefits everyone in the community. Stay safe and aloha, Robin Campaniano President & Chief Executive Officer AIG Hawaii Insurance Company Safe Driving Benefits Customers and Communities Providing the quality products and services that you need and expect is a top priority for AIG Hawaii.  That’s why we’ve introduced the AIG Hawaii DriveSafe discount program.  This new program rewards safe drivers with discounts and savings while encouraging safe driving in the community.

Cell Phone Safety Think talking on your cell phone while pumping gas is a good way to multi-task? Think again. Did you know that cell phones can ignite fuel or fumes? Or that cell phones that light up when they’re turned on or when they ring release enough energy to provide a spark for ignition?  In response to recent cell phone related fires, we offer these safe refueling tips: Turn off your car’s engine while refueling. Don’t use your cell phone while refueling.  Leave it inside your car or turn it off. Don’t use your cell phone while fueling lawn mowers, boats or other small engines. Cell phones should be turned off or not used around other materials that generate flammable or explosive fumes or dust (i.e. solvents, chemicals, gases, grain dust, etc.).
