What Is High Auto Risk Insurance?

What Is High Risk Auto Insurance?

High risk auto insurance is a type of coverage for drivers who are considered a high risk. Some refer to it as non-standard coverage. You may need to get high risk insurance if you have a bad driving record. This includes too many tickets, too many at-fault accidents, insurance policy cancellations or payment issues.

Insurers see these types of drivers as a higher risk. They are either not willing to take on the risk or will insure you at a higher rate. Every insurer has different measures for what makes a driver qualified for non-standard car insurance coverage.

How Much Does High Risk Auto Insurance Cost?

The cost of high risk auto insurance can be significantly more than cost of standard car insurance in Ontario. In many cases, you can expect your rates to double or triple compared to regular car insurance.

Average rates can range between $2,500 to $5,000 or more per year depending on your driving record and insurance history.

Thinkinsure is an excellent company. I was having a hard time finding car insurance and they got me a very good rate given my circumstances. My broker Amneet Bal was extremely helpful, and even went as far as speaking to my old insurance company on my behalf to get the required documents. Would use again! Can't recommend this company enough.

What Are The Reasons You Are Considered A High-Risk Driver?

High-Risk Auto Insurance Ontario

There are many driving and non-driving reasons you can be considered a high-risk driver in Ontario.

Here are the common driving causes that make you a high-risk :

  • Speeding Tickets And Traffic Convictions : How many speeding tickets or other driving convictions did you have in the last 3 years? If you have more than a few, insurers may view you as a high-risk.
  • Impaired Driving : Impaired driving is a serious offence. You should never get behind the wheel if you’ve been drinking or are under the influence of drugs. Do you have an impaired driving conviction? Many insurers may not provide you with insurance coverage.
  • At-Fault Accidents : Do you have at-fault accidents on your record? You could have your insurance cancelled or your insurer could choose not to renew your policy.
  • Careless Driving Or Stunt Driving : Have issues because of a careless driving or stunt driving ticket? A conviction for careless driving stays on your record for 3 years. You’ll need non-standard car insurance during this time.

These are some non-driving factors that make you a higher risk :

  • Insurance Payment Issues : Had a few late payments or missed some payments? It happens. People fall on financial hardships. Most often it is out of your hands and without notice. We can still get you coverage.
  • You’ve Had A Lapse In Coverage : Insurance providers like drivers who have long histories of continuous insurance coverage. A lapse in coverage will cause most insurers to take a second look.
  • You’ve Never Had Insurance Before : Is this your first auto insurance policy or are you a new driver? Providers may consider you a higher risk because you don’t have any prior insurance history.

How Do You Get The Cheapest High Risk Auto Insurance?

Cheap High Risk Insurance Ontario

Here are the best tips to help you save on high risk car insurance.

  1. Stay Accident Free : It’s very important to re-establish a clean driving record. Drive safe, avoid at fault accidents, and stay claims free.
  2. Don't Get Any Traffic Convictions : Follow the driving rules and stay conviction free. You don't want to get rated for any convictions on your insurance.
  3. Complete Driver Training : Take certified driver training courses if you are a young or new driver. This will qualify you for an insurance discount and lower your rates.
  4. Take A Defensive Driving Course : Taking extra driving courses could help drivers with a poor driving record get lower rates. Check for approved courses and driving schools.
  5. Drive An Insurance Friendly Vehicle : Drive a car that is less expensive to insure. Now is not the time to be driving a sports car or expensive vehicle. Consider trading in your car for a model with a better safety record or safety features. See this list of the cheapest cars to insure.
  6. Pay Your Insurance Premiums On Time : Avoid missing a payment or having payment issues. Cancellation for non-payment goes in your insurance record and will increase rates.
  7. Get advice from a broker : Every situation is unique. Speak with a high risk broker about your unique case. They can provide you with expert advice. They can also find you ways to lower your premiums.
  8. Shop around : While they may be fewer, you still have options. Comparison shop to find the right policy and cheapest rates.
