…maybe only in Canada, eh
I believe it is a law that all vehicles be insured, hence the reason the insurance is applied to the vehicle and not the driver. I believe this regardless of who was operating the vehicle at the time of an incident, including the case where the vehicle was in fact not being operated ( a runaway ) or for that matter if it was stolen and involved in an incident while at the hands of a thief.
I’d love to be corrected on this point, maybe then I could drop the insurance on several vehicles, seeing as I can only operate one of them at a time.
Remember also the insurance companies can in turn sue for liability as they deem appropriate, for instance; did you leave the keys in the ignition?
