Specified Perils
Specified Perils coverage is similar to
Comprehensive,
but covers a much more limited list of risks:
- fire
- lightning
- theft (except by an employee or member
of your household)
- windstorm
- earthquake
- hail
- explosion
- riot
- civil commotion
- falling or forced landing of an aircraft
or portion of it
- rising water or the stranding, sinking,
burning, derailment or collision of a conveyance transporting
the vehicle on land or water
What it doesn't cover
Some of the losses that are not covered
include damage from vandalism, malicious mischief, falling objects
such as rocks, or impact with an animal. You need Comprehensive
coverage for protection against those risks.
Which should you choose?
All coverage provided by Specified Perils
is also included under Comprehensive
coverage. Customers should choose one or the other, not both, of
these coverages. Their costs reflect the amount of coverage they
provide.
Affect on your discount
Claims made against Specified Perils coverage

Deductible

perils coverage is always $300.
Loss of Use coverage
Specified Perils coverage includes Loss
of Use coverage only if your vehicle is stolen (as long as your
vehicle is not a taxi, limousine-use or a u-drive vehicle.)
Coverage begins 72 hours after the theft
is reported to police, and ends on the earlier of: repairs being
made to a recovered vehicle; ICBC settling or offering to settle
the claim: or reaching the limit of coverage, which is up to $40
per day to a maximum of $800.
Your adjuster will tell you how to proceed
if you have a claim.
