What is the minimum legislated limit of third party liability coverage required for motorists in the common law provinces?

The minimum legislated limit of third-party liability coverage required for motorists in the common law provinces is $200,000. This amount is set as a baseline to ensure that individuals who are injured or whose property is damaged in an accident caused by the insured driver have access to adequate compensation.

This limit reflects the need for a standard that balances the protection of injured parties and the rights of drivers to manage their insurance costs effectively. A limit of $200,000 provides a reasonable framework, taking into consideration the potential costs related to medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage that may arise from an accident. Therefore, this minimum requirement helps to ensure that victims have a recourse for damages while promoting responsible driving and insurance practices among motorists.
