You have some options for the car insurance types you choose to include in your policy. Options include auto liability coverage, uninsured motorist coverage, comprehensive coverage, collision coverage, medical payments coverage and personal injury protection. Depending on where you’re located, some of these will be optional and some will be mandatory. 

Insurance by province varies but on average, the cost in British Columbia ranges between $1500-2000.

It doesn’t necessarily reduce your rates, but it may change your insurance coverage requirements. Once you own the car, you’re free to decrease or drop collision and comprehensive coverage.
