The Mistake Report analysed the data from over 210,000 home, car and contents insurance claims, combined with publicly available police, NZ Transport, Statistics NZ, and weather data to identify trends and patterns*.

While we've presented the insights we've uncovered in a fun way, the Mistake Report aims to make New Zealand a safer place by making you aware of these patterns, so you can make fewer mistakes! However, if something happens, and a mistake turns into a claim, we're here to help you get back on your feet — even Johns, the name that made the most mistakes!

*Analysis includes State claims data, 1 July 2019-30 June 2021 and publicly available police, NZ Transport, Statistics NZ and weather data, 1 January-31 December 2020.
