6 things you need to know about Car Insurance coverage in Alberta.

In Edmonton, it's a requirement for all drivers to get basic auto insurance. But, did you know that getting the coverage you need can save you time, money, and major headaches?

Third-party liability (also called personal liability and property damage) protects you for up to $200,000 in claims made by other motorists for injury or property damage. This amount is the minimum requirement and sounds like a lot of money you'd be surprised how much you may need to pay out to a driver who incurs a major injury.
