Avoid Calf Problems This Year Ontario Drivers collectively set their own automobile insurance rates. It is the number and cost of automobile accidents which determine insurance rates. If accidents and their costs increase, then automobile insurance rates must inevitably increase. But, when greater care and caution on the part of motorists results in fewer, and less costly, accidents, automobile insurance rates can be reduced. In 1956 most automobile insurance rates will be reduced —on the average six per cent for private passenger cars and 10 per cent for commercial vehicles, with decreases up to 20 per cent in some cases. The actual change will vary from area to area and between one class of insurance and another. Effective January 1,1956, motorists generally will benefit from the following changes: ■ There will be many reductions in basic rates, ■ Drivers qualifying for the three-year claims-free class will get 25 per cent discounts from basic rates as opposed to 20 per cent in 1955. ■ A new two-year claims-free class will be established and drivers in this group will benefit by 15 per cent discounts from basic rates. ■ Under-25 married car owners will be placed in a lower rating classification than formerly.
