Can a family member borrow your car in BC and still be covered if they cause a crash?
It depends on who is driving, how often they use your vehicle, and your policy’s coverage.
For occasional drivers who do not live with you, Unlisted Driver Protection may help protect you from an additional premium after a crash. But household members, regular drivers, and employees may need to be listed.
Also, Unlisted Driver Protection does not necessarily cover repairs to your own car; that depends on your Collision coverage.
Before handing over the keys, review your listed drivers and coverage with a broker.
