For whatever you own that goes VROOM.

A checklist using Infographic illustrations to highlight key coverages and tips for auto insurance in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Includes images of cars, trucks, classic cars, trailers, RVs, motorcycles and snowmobiles.

Personal vehicles:

  • You absolutely have to have:
    • Third-Party Liability
    • Accident Benefits / Personal Injury Protection (like medical expenses)
    • Uninsured Motorist / Underinsured Protection (in case the at-fault driver has too little insurance)
  • But you might also want to get:
    • Collision Coverage (an at-fault accident, or a hit-and-run)
    • Comprehensive Coverage (For things like theft, vandalism, weather damage, etc.)
  • Additional considerations
    • Rental vehicle coverage (in case yours is in the shop)

RVs:

  • Activate coverage before you hit the road
  • Review storage damage risks

Classic cars:

  • Insure it for its true value
  • Know your mileage restrictions
  • Consider coverage for spare parts and restoration
  • Ask about event and show coverage (she’s too pretty to sit in the garage all year!)

Trailer:

  • Insure your travel trailer for camping and recreation

  • Insure your utility trailer for hauling tools, equipment or personal items

  • Insure your boat trailer
  • Insure your ATV trailer
  • Insure your livestock trailer

Liability: If the trailer causes damage or injury, the insurance on the pulling vehicle is likely to cover liability. The trailer owner may also be sued. 

Commercial vehicles:

  • Make sure you have liability coverage for at least the minimum legal requirement.
  • Ask about physical damage coverage (collision and comprehensive).
  • You might also want uninsured/underinsured motorist protection.
  • Hired & non-owned auto (HNOA) coverage (for rentals or employee-owned vehicles used for work).
  • Higher, long-distance converge for mileage and radius for prairie provinces
  • Finally, ask about custom equipment/tools coverage (racks, lifts, wraps, etc.).
