Road hazard glass protection offers coverage at a lower deductible for repairing or replacing your vehicle’s glass damaged by road debris, such as stones or objects thrown up from the road or fallen from other vehicles.
This additional coverage can be purchased if you already have collision coverage under your Auto policy.
If you are unable to drive your car due to a covered accident or if the vehicle is stolen, loss-of-use coverage will help pay for a rental vehicle while your vehicle is being repaired or replaced.
Lastly, if you are renting a vehicle and it’s damaged during your rental period, you can apply loss-of-use to cover downtime charges set by the rental company.
Important: Coverage for non-owned vehicles (like rental cars) extends only to incidents occurring in Canada and the United States of America (U.S.A.). All other countries (e.g., Mexico, Europe) are excluded.
Standard auto insurance policies typically offer liability coverage ranging from $1 million to $5 million.
If you’re in an accident where you’re found responsible for causing injury or property damage, the basic $200,000 plate limit might not be enough. This is especially important if you drive in the United States or provinces with different coverage rules than Saskatchewan’s no-fault system.
BUSINESS
The exposure that business owners and commercial drivers experience can far exceed that of an average driver.
Depending on your operations, carrying an additional Commercial Auto policy may be required as your plate registration doesn’t cover most business-related uses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I lower my auto insurance premiums in Saskatchewan?
You can lower your auto insurance premiums by bundling vehicles on the same policy, maintaining a clean driving record, or choosing a higher deductible.
What’s the difference between SGI basic plate insurance and additional coverage?
Basic plate insurance in Saskatchewan provides minimum liability coverage of $200,000, injury coverage, and some damage protection. Still, it may not be enough for most drivers, especially if they do a lot of out-of-province driving or visit the United States.
When purchasing a new vehicle, can I transfer my pre-existing insurance from my current car to the new vehicle?
Yes, you can! All you’ll need is your bill of sale and the basic registration for the new vehicle to complete this transition.
