Who does a Driving School Owner and ATV Safety Training Organization Surety Bond protect?
Unlike insurance, which protects you, your home or your business, Driving School Owner and ATV Safety Training Organization Surety Bonds protect the obligee (entity requiring the bond). If the principal (licensed wholesaler) does not offer or misrepresents services prepaid for driving instruction, a claim can be filed against their bond. If the claim is valid, the surety will pay up to the penal sum of the bond to resolve the claim. You are then required to reimburse the surety for all monies paid out, including any attorney fees incurred by the surety in the defense of the claim.
Claims can be detrimental to your business. Not only do they cause financial harm, they make it very difficult, if not impossible, to get bonded again.
