your new insurance agent will be ben. ben dover. Insurance premiums of anyone convicted under the new law will increase "exponentially," even if they previously had a clean record, Mr. Yutman acknowledged.

"Insurance will be available, but it becomes incredibly expensive." Do Canadian insurance companies pay for speeding tickets or something?

I was wondering why that would change with this new law. Surely driving 50kmh over the limit was illegal before the new law? I'd expect a new fine to have no impact on insurance rates. Sure, your rates will go up if you have bad marks on your driving record, but the amount of the fine shouldn't impact the rates.

If the level of speed is deemed attributable to an increase in the amount and severity of accidents, and the amount of fine correlative to the speed, I can see an insurance company using that as a scale of potential risk.
