Penang Insurance Considerations
Penang island has different traffic characteristics to Seberang Perai (mainland). Island drivers face more congestion and narrower roads; mainland drivers have broader roads but longer commutes via the bridge.
Flood Risk Areas
- Low-lying George Town areas
- Seberang Perai near Sungai Perai
- Bayan Lepas industrial zone low areas
- Butterworth flood-prone zones
Penang experienced major floods in 2017 and 2021 causing billions in damage. Both the island and mainland (Seberang Perai) face flood risk during northeast monsoon. Special Perils coverage is essential for Penang drivers.
