Car Coverage

Mandatory Car Insurance Coverage

When braving traffic on the busy highways in Toronto, or getting caught in the cottage country rush, make sure you have the right coverage. Here is the mandatory minimum you need:

  1. Liability Coverage: If you injure someone or damage property, payments are made on your behalf.

  2. Uninsured Automobile Coverage: Medical costs and damage are covered if an uninsured driver is at fault.

  3. Accident Benefits Coverage: Regardless of who is at fault, medical and other expenses you are entitled to receive are covered.

Enhanced Coverage

Choose one of these options for beyond-the-minimum protection for your car.

  1. Specified Perils: Protects your vehicle from specified perils such as losses caused by fire, floods, hail or theft.

  2. Comprehensive: All other insured damage caused to your vehicle (except collision or upset).

  3. Collision or Upset: Damage to your vehicle caused by a traffic collision with another vehicle or object.

  4. All Perils: The broadest level of coverage — combines Collision or Upset and Comprehensive coverage along with increased theft protection.

  5. Direct Compensation: Damages to your car are covered if you're not at fault.
