- CHCameron HughesOct 13, 20255.0Hi- I've worked with Chelysia Kamsteeg on my insurance needs over the last six months, and wow did she deliver! I ended up getting three different insurance policies for my world, and Chelysia was absolutely phenomenal every step of the way. She could ( should:) write a book on 'customer service!' Thank you for making my life easier, and all that you did! - Cam

Frequently Asked Questions About Western Coast Insurance Services Ltd. | Home, Car & Business Insurance
Does my ICBC insurance cover someone else driving my car?
Yes, your ICBC insurance will cover someone else driving your car, but ICBC requires that you list all potential drivers, whether secondary or occasional, on your policy. Once listed, these individuals are covered under your policy. There is also some coverage available for unlisted drivers, but it may be subject to a penalty. Be sure to classify a friend or family member as a secondary driver if you know that they will be driving your car during the policy term.
