Hello fellow agents,
Needing some advice here. I know that Canada has compulsory insurance laws and that the "Canada Inter-Province Motor Vehicle Liability Insurance Card" is used to prove coverage if you are taking an insured vehicle into Canada. However, what do you do if the insured is renting a car (therefore you don't have the "make/model/VIN" that is required on the card)?
I spoke to a couple rental agencies near the border and they say they don't issue Canada ID Cards and that the insured "should" be fine just carrying their US Insurance ID Card on their owned vehicle, even while driving a rental.
Anyone with experience on this? Will a Canadian cop accept that should the insured get pulled over? I don't want my insured fined or ending up in a Canadian Labor Camp (sarcasm) for not carrying proof of insurance.
TIA for anyone that can help me.
