Questions we ask ourselves to feel we can drive with confidence 

(Father shrugs and raises one hand in a gesture of cluelessness.

Question #19 

(Father hands keys to his son.)  

You’re planning to give your car to your child. What do you need to do about the insurance? 

(One car collides with another. Crash sound.)  

Because your child owns the car, they are now responsible if it causes damage 

(The son is at the wheel of the car, with a sorry look on his face. Picture of an insurance policy.)  

Therefore, the insurance policy must be in your child’s name. 

(A CAA-Quebec advisor and a Groupement des assureurs automobiles advisor surround the father.)  

Always there to answer your questions
