We often receive emails asking specific insurance-related questions. Here are some of the most common questions, with responses provided by the Principal Broker at KTX Insurance Solutions, a licensed insurance representative featured through the Kanetix® quote comparison service.
Can I get insurance for a car even though I do not yet have my G2?
Yes. As the registered owner, you can get insurance on the vehicle. A policy is always set up in the name of the registered owner. However, the primary driver of the vehicle must be someone who has a valid G2 or a full G licence.
If you simply want to get Comprehensive coverage (also commonly referred to as Fire and Theft), unfortunately this is not currently available for quoting online through Kanetix.ca. In this case, then your best bet is to contact:
- The insurance company who currently insures the other resident's vehicles in your household (if available)
- Your home insurer
- The Facility Association
Another option, until you get your G2 and can be listed as the primary driver, is to simply put the vehicle in storage that is locked and secure.
For more information, refer to the question, "I own a vehicle, but do not or can not drive it. Can I get insurance for it so that someone else can drive it?"
