Is insurance mandatory in Peterborough?

Certain types of insurance are mandatory in Peterborough while others are not. For example, car insurance is mandatory throughout Ontario. Therefore, before getting behind the wheel in Peterborough, you will need to make sure you have a valid, up-to-date car insurance policy that complies with provincial law. This means a policy that features a minimum of $200,000 in third party liability coverage, accident benefits coverage, uninsured automobile coverage, and direct compensation - property damage coverage. Failure to purchase car insurance can result in serious consequences, like fines of up to $25,000 for a first offense and up to $50,000 for a second offense and the suspension of your driver’s licence.

Car insurance is the only type of government-mandated insurance in Peterborough. That said, home insurance might also be mandatory in certain situations, such as when you take out a mortgage loan. Some lenders require borrowers to purchase homeowners insurance as a condition of their loan. To learn more about insurance requirements in Peterborough, contact BrokerLink today.
