subject: Adding Home, Life, Benefits For Canadian Car Insurance [print this page] There are several benefits to owning and driving a vehicle in Canada and if the vehicle owner adds life insurance, homeowners insurance or some other type of insurance coverage to their Canadian car insurance policy, they will receive financial discounts among other incentives.
Just as with most states in America, it is the legal responsibility of a Canadian vehicle driver to insure their car against accidents. Depending on which territory an individual lives in, this will dictate what type of automobile insurance coverage a person needs to obtain in order to legally drive along the public roadways.
The government in Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Manitoba will provide the required minimum or basic car insurance policy for its residents. The government and private auto insurance groups offer enhancements to the basic policy in order to add additional coverage and save car owners money. Uninsured motorists, comprehensive and additional liability are some of the added cars insurance policies available for drivers who wish to make sure they are covered in all types of situations.
By choosing a government insurance plan or private insurance company that allows an individual to combine their life insurance, health insurance or a homeowner's policy, an individual will be able to save more money than if they were to purchase each policy individually from the same company or different companies.
Furthermore, there are many different types of discounts for drivers in Canada when they add to their automobile insurance policy or tell their agent more about themselves as a driver. For instance, if a homeowner adds their house to an insurance policy, combining the auto and home and then has a student driver, with good grades, there could be a substantial savings for a good student driver and adding the home policy.
Combining other insurance needs with the same insurance company is a good idea because it not only saves an individual money, but time. There is no sense in calling or traveling all over town in order to find quotes, make payments or report claims on insurance when everything could be handled under one roof.
Many times an insurance adjuster for an auto claim will come to the automobile instead of having the owner try to drive the vehicle to the adjuster. If the vehicle is at the owner's home, the adjuster could also look at the home if the insured is having issues with anything such as a washer flooding the basement or a leaky roof. Having the insurance adjuster make one trip will save them time and money and, save time for the owner of the car and home as well.
Life insurance is an important part of everyone's life although its not something everyone wants to discuss or look into because it tends to bring most people face to face with their mortality and the what-ifs of their lives.
By combining life insurance with home insurance, a Canadian car insurance company could extend several benefits, some monetary, others simply ease of location, to the owner of a vehicle, home and those wanting to insure their life for their family.
