Car and Motoring Insurance (for driving on public highway)
Explanation:
Public Highway Insurance would connote roadworks.

I can't see that a motoring insurance can be taken out in the UK for driving around private property. See egen egendom below. Must be covered, though, by any public i.e. third-party liability ins. taken out.

'... UK Shops : Insurance : *Car and Motoring Insurance*. AA Insurance. Established motoring and travel organisation offering breakdown cover ...*


'SalusAnsvar trafikförsäkring. 5 ... bilen. Din trafikförsäkring gäller *inte för skador på din egen bil eller på egendom* i denna. ...'

In the US this would be liabilty insurance, but maybe you could alos say third party liabilty insurance. Gullberg mentions that.

On second thoughts, it perhaps needs the added words \"on public highways\" to distinguish this insurance from bilansvarsförsäkring
