Mandatory Coverage

What coverage do you need in Toronto? The four types of mandatory coverage include:

With this coverage, those injured in an accident will be reimbursed for the associated costs regardless of who is at fault or how it happened. It includes coverage for income replacement, caregivers, death benefits, rehabilitation expenses, and medical expenses.

Accident benefits apply to drivers, passengers, or pedestrians. Minor injury coverage is limited to $3,500; for catastrophic injuries, there are different levels of accident benefits insurance.

If you’re involved in an at-fault accident, you will be responsible for paying the damages to other people or property. This insurance will help you cover the costs of those payments.

In these circumstances, those affected by the accident may file a lawsuit against you. Third-party liability insurance will cover the legal fees, including money to settle the lawsuit, up to the limit specified in your policy.

In accidents where another driver is at fault, this policy will pay for the damages and loss of use. With direct compensation coverage, your own insurance company will reimburse you for the claims.

Even though insurance is mandatory, not all Toronto drivers have it. If your vehicle is damaged in a hit-and-run or an accident where an uninsured driver is at fault, this policy will cover damage and medical costs.

Enhanced Coverage

You can purchase physical damage coverage for your vehicle to cover additional perils. Options include:

This covers the costs of damage caused by impacts with vehicles, roadways, or buildings.

Get insurance for losses specified in this policy, which include fire and theft. It also covers you for vandalism, flying/falling objects, riots, and windstorms.

For all-inclusive coverage, choose all perils insurance; it provides collision and comprehensive coverage.

This policy offers protection for damages not covered by collision insurance.

Optional Coverage

For extra protection, you can choose from any of these Toronto auto insurance policy add-ons:

You’ll get reimbursed for the cost of renting a vehicle while yours is being repaired (as long as the damage was caused by an insured peril).

Depreciation is not usually applied in a loss unless you have this coverage; if you lease or own a new vehicle, you may want to consider this insurance add-on.

Protect yourself and your family with this insurance coverage, which is designed to cover you in case the at-fault driver has inadequate insurance (or is unidentified).

Rental car insurance is essential when you’re renting or borrowing a vehicle. This insurance policy will provide you with liability, accident benefits, direct compensation, and uninsured automobile coverage.

Protect your driving record and rating after your first at-fault accident. Your insurance premiums will not increase as long as you remain with the same car insurance company.
