      <image:caption>Once you complete your STR safety inspection, Breezeway will issue you a PDF report, as well as a certification badge that you can display in your advertising. Some insurance companies, such as Proper Insurance, will accept this report as proof of your commitment to safety and provide you with a discount on your insurance policy. If you don’t pass the safety self-inspection, Breezeway does NOT share that information with anyone, including VTSTRA and the State of Vermont.</image:caption>
