4. Clarification concerning certain insurance contract coverages
The insurance contract must provide the following minimum coverages:
Section A
- Only one amount of insurance is provided for in Section A and this amount is at least $1 million.
- The amount of insurance provided for in Section A applies for the entire duration of the
coverage period.
Section B, including the following two protections:
- Protection 2;
For Protection 2 coverages to apply, the following condition must be met:
The personal insurance policy insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver must
include Protection 1 or Protection 2 on the date of the loss.
The deductible for Protection 2 is the same as that indicated in the personal insurance policy
insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver for Protection 1 or Protection 2, as applicable.
The supporting documents establishing the protection and deductible under the personal
insurance policy must be provided to the insurer.
- Protection 3;
For Protection 3 coverages to apply, the following condition must be met:
The personal insurance policy insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver must
include Protection 1, Protection 3 or Protection 4 on the date of the loss.
However, if the personal insurance policy insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver
provides Protection 4, the coverages offered under this protection apply only if a peril
covered by Protection 4 occurs.
The deductible for Protection 3 is the same as that indicated in the personal insurance policy
insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver for Protection 1, Protection 3 or Protection 4, as
applicable.
The supporting documents establishing the protection and deductible under the personal
insurance policy must be given to the insurer.
Endorsement Q.E.F. No. 20 – Travel expenses (Section B) (“QEF No. 20”)
- For QEF No. 20 coverages to apply, the following condition must be met:
The personal insurance policy insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver must
include endorsement QEF No. 20, Q.E.F. No. 20a, Q.E.F. No. 20b or QEF No. 20c on the
date of the loss, and the supporting documents demonstrating this must be provided to
the insurer.
October 25, 2016
Endorsement Q.E.F. No. 43 (A to F) – Change to indemnity (Section B) (“QEF No. 43”)
- For QEF No. 43 coverages to apply, either of the following conditions must be met:
The personal insurance policy insuring the vehicle used by the partner-driver must
include endorsement QEF No. 43 on the date of the loss, and the supporting documents
demonstrating this must be provided to the insurer.
In this case, the applicable coverages are the same as those in the personal insurance
policy.
The vehicle used by the partner-driver must be covered by Q.P.F. No. 5 –
Complementary Insurance for Damage Caused to Insured Vehicle Form (Replacement
Insurance) on the date of the loss, and the supporting documents demonstrating this
must be provided to the insurer.
In this case, QEF No. 43 coverages are, as applicable:
o Option 43A – Partial loss – New parts;
o Option 43E – Total loss – Replacement cost.
If Option 1B or Option 2B was selected in Q.P.F. No. 5 – Complementary
Insurance for Damage Caused to Insured Vehicle Form (Replacement Insurance)
(“QPF No. 5”), the value of damage determined according to Option 43E may not
be greater than the marked-up value calculated in accordance with QPF No. 5.
- Change to Exclusions:
This endorsement withdraws exclusion 5 E. of Section A and exclusion 6 I. of Section B regarding the
use of the vehicle as a taxicab, and therefore allows insured vehicles to be used for remunerated
passenger transportation services requested exclusively using the Uber Canada Inc. mobile application.
- Processing of claims:
As part of the claims process, the insurer must take the necessary steps to ensure that it can obtain
promptly from Uber Canada Inc. information about the log of the date, time, and duration of each
connection of a partner-driver.
Other condition or restriction:
The Authority may modify any condition or restriction in this endorsement or impose additional conditions
or restrictions.
All other conditions of the insurance contract remain the same.
