The mandatory reporting rules went from a thousand dollars to ten thousand for a minor car accident in response to a UBCM 2017 resolution and the provincial budget in BC.
To lessen delays and waiting.
The provincial government has amended its rules around mandatory police reporting of minor collisions. This move responds to a resolution (B83) endorsed by the UBCM membership at the 2017 convention. The updated Motor Vehicle Act Regulations increase the mandatory reporting threshold for property-damage-only (PDO) collisions from $1,000 to $10,000.
Any one hurt requiring medical attention is not a minor accident.
Editors note: To use insurance you need to report to your agent and you may not have the advantage of a police report for fault. Be careful failing to remain at and accident ( more then 10,000 dollars) or injuries is a serious criminal code offence. On advice leaving your name and phone number may be prudent in any case.
Add note: Premier Horgan of BC was in town today at the Keklui café to meet the public.
