Auto Insurance Risk Analysis
Auto insurance is complicated. Work with an experienced ICBC Autoplan specialist like Reliance who understands the complexities of car insurance coverages.
When the policy and the planning are done correctly, this forms the foundation for complete and affordable coverage. We also offer private insurance options to those that qualify. Private insurance can result in significant overall savings while maintaining the same or superior coverage for your vehicle. We ask the right questions to ensure your policy covers the basics but also items that may have an impact on a future claim at the best value.
It really doesn’t matter what type of motor vehicle you need to insure, it’s more important to insure yourself, your loved ones and your livelihood against the risk of an auto accident, theft or other damages to your vehicle.
Reliance Insurance has extensive expertise in auto insurance. Although Autoplan offers a good basic package, the reality is that the minimums are usually not enough to cover loss and injury expenses.
We can help you determine the best coverage and optional coverages you may want to consider.
Now for the small print.
BC Auto Insurance Requirements
People who own and drive cars in British Columbia are required to obtain registration and the minimum basic liability insurance plan through Auto Plan by the Insurance Corporation of BC (ICBC). ICBC requires the registrant to purchase the insurance in person. The basic policy protection includes:
