FAQ

Ontario auto insurance —
common questions.

How much is car insurance in Ontario in 2026?
The average annual premium in Ontario is around $1,528 — but it varies by city (Toronto is highest), driving record, and vehicle. Comparing 20+ insurers typically saves $200–$700 per year.
Is Ontario a no-fault province?
Yes — Ontario uses Direct Compensation Property Damage (DCPD). Your own insurer pays for damage when you’re not at fault. Fault is determined by degree (0%, 25%, 50%, 100%).
What is SABS and do I need it?
SABS = Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule. Mandatory in Ontario — covers medical, income replacement, rehabilitation. Standard limits provided; enhanced options available.
Do I need OPCF 44R?
Optional but strongly recommended. If an at-fault driver has insufficient insurance, OPCF 44R (Family Protection) pays the difference. Usually $30–$60/year — one of the best value coverages in Ontario.
Is AccesDirect really free?
Yes. AccesDirect is a comparison platform — we connect you with partner brokerages who provide quotes at no cost. Partner brokers are compensated by insurers, not by you.
