Auto Insurance Rates Increase in Ontario
Auto insurance rates are expected to rise up to 19% for Ontario drivers. The average Toronto area driver may see rates increase by up to 14% according to the article “Auto insurance rates to rise as much as 19% in Ontario” on GlobalToronto.com.
Ten auto insurance companies, which serve more than a fourth of Ontario drivers, have been approved to raise their auto insurance rates once again. One of the reasons for the increased rates is the cost pressures being placed on insurers.
It’s important to keep prices in perspective though because auto insurance rates are still relatively low when compared to previous years. When compared to the cost of living, rates are reasonable. Finance Minister Dwight Duncan plans to announce changes to auto insurance rates during the government’s 5 year review.
