Manitoba motorcycle owners will have more options when they purchase insurance, Manitoba Public Insurance announced today.
“We are committed to working positively with the motorcycle community,” said Ward Keith, acting Vice-President, Business Development, Communications & Chief Product Officer, Manitoba Public Insurance.
“Given the increase in the number of registered motorcycles and mopeds, and ongoing dialogue with motorcyclists through the Coalition of Manitoba Motorcycle Groups, (CMMG), the Corporation initiated these new products to address the insurance needs of the motorcycle community in Manitoba.
“The new products will provide motorcycle owners with greater peace of mind and added convenience in the event of a collision. This is a positive step forward for motorcycle owners in our province.”
Available Monday, May 4, motorcycle owners will be able to purchase the following new products from their Autopac agent:
- Rental Vehicle Insurance
- Extension Loss of Use
- Excess Value Coverage
- New and Leased Vehicle Protection Extension Insurance
CMMG President Brian Segal said today’s announcement is a positive step forward for all motorcycle owners. “Our advocacy efforts are once again showing results,” said Segal. “Motorcyclists will now have extension insurance products on par with those of automobiles. CMMG is pleased to have been instrumental in making them available for motorcyclists.”
