No doubt you will have heard or know someone who has been involved in an accident with their vehicle. If they are lucky, they may walk away from an accident unhurt but their car can be damaged or written off. If either of the drivers involved, do not have car insurance Alberta, it can be a costly error on their part.

If the accident was your fault, you will likely have to pay for repairs on both vehicles involved, or at worst, if either car is a write off, you will have to cover the cost of a new vehicle. In addition to the financial costs, if you do not have insurance, you are breaking the law. You will need to face the possibility that you could end up in court, and be fined or locked up for not having car insurance.

It makes little difference if you are looking for auto insurance quote, or you live in Edmonton and want a car insurance quote. Your best option for finding a good deal, is to use the internet and a comparison website. That way, you only need to complete one form, but you should receive four of five quotes to choose from.

The application form you complete online will usually ask for general details, but will also ask you occupation. Your occupation can affect the cost of auto insurance Alberta because if you drive for a living, you have more experience than the average driver and are considered to be a better risk.

If you are a GP or in a similar profession and you have to visit patients or clients at home or in different parts of the city then you are more of a security risk. If you have to carry drugs or other perhaps valuable items in your vehicle and park in high-crime areas, you are a higher risk. Your premiums will be more unless you have additional security measures in place such as a tracker system or an anti-theft lock on the steering.

Using the internet and a comparison website that deals specifically with auto insurance providers, provides fast results and the whole process can be completed in a matter of minutes, if you can pay online for the cover. You can download a copy of the agreement and keep it filed on your computer for future reference, and you can print a copy to keep in handy in the car. The original policy documents will normally be sent to you through the post.

Alternatively, you can shop around on your own for auto insurance Alberta, but that can be time-consuming and frustrating. You are missing out on what could be a cheaper option with better cover because you are not in a position to request quotes for other auto insurance Edmonton providers.

When you purchase a vehicle, it is likely that the car sales person will try to persuade you to use their insurer. It is not unusual for them to offer a years-free car insurance Alberta as an incentive to get you to commit to the purchase. However, make sure it is a fully comprehensive policy and there are no catches.
