Driving under the influence is not only dangerous but can also have serious consequences for your auto insurance coverage. If you are convicted of DUI or involved in an accident while impaired, your insurer may deny your claims, cancel your policy, or refuse to renew it. Although Ontario law ensures that basic insurance must be available to all drivers, you'll likely be classified as a high-risk driver and may need to seek coverage from non-standard insurers. However, you could face premiums up to five times higher than those for drivers with a clean record. If your policy is cancelled due to a DUI, contact a PrimeService broker for help finding suitable coverage.
