There are several incentives and benefits to adding a homeowner's insurance policy or a life insurance policy to a Canadian car insurance policy. An individual or family could enjoy many bonuses, including monetary discounts, when they take all of their insurance needs to one company.

In order to legally drive on the streets of the United States, motorists must have auto insurance. This is the same with Canadian drivers; car insurance is a must in order to become a licensed driver in all the territories of Canada. Each community has their own set of laws for the insurance requirements; however, if an individual is stopped for any type of traffic violation and can not produce their insurance card, they will face stiff penalties and possible jail time.

Many of the Canadian providences offer insurance for automobiles through the local government; however it is only bare minimum coverage. If an insured would like to add coverage to their basic policy, it would save the policy holder money and give them greater peace of mind when it comes to driving across the country or around their neighborhood. Added liability, comprehensive insurance and underinsured or uninsured auto insurance are just a few of the additional policies that are available for drivers.

Choosing a private or the government's insurance plan which encourages a car owner to mix their health insurance, life insurance or a homeowner's policy, will serve to save an individual much money because purchasing these types of plans for insurance separately would be incredibly costly.

Furthermore, there are many different types of discounts for drivers in Canada when they add to their automobile insurance policy or tell their agent more about themselves as a driver. For instance, if a homeowner adds their house to an insurance policy, combining the auto and home and then has a student driver, with good grades, there could be a substantial savings for a good student driver and adding the home policy.

Time and money are the biggest savers a customer could experience when they merge their life insurance with their car and homeowners insurance policies. Running all over town or phoning several places to report a claim or make a payment seems a waste of time when everything could be done at one location.

Many times an insurance adjuster for an auto claim will come to the automobile instead of having the owner try to drive the vehicle to the adjuster. If the vehicle is at the owner's home, the adjuster could also look at the home if the insured is having issues with anything such as a washer flooding the basement or a leaky roof. Having the insurance adjuster make one trip will save them time and money and, save time for the owner of the car and home as well.

While it is critical to all people, life insurance is a subject that many people want to steer clear of as long as they can given that most people associate life insurance with their immortality and questions about the unknown future.

By combining life insurance with home insurance, a Canadian car insurance company could extend several benefits, some monetary, others simply ease of location, to the owner of a vehicle, home and those wanting to insure their life for their family.
