Ali bought a new car in October for which he had been saving for a long time. On November
13th, he was in a car accident and was hospitalized, missing two weeks of work before he
fully recovered. He does not have Short Term Disability insurance through his employer but
used his fully paid sick days to cover his ten-day work absence. He has not seen his car yet
as it was towed away but heard from his insurer that there was damage of $10,000 to his
car. The other car that hit him from behind had $15,000 in damages. Ali's automobile
insurance policy has a $2,000 deductible for collision insurance, $500 deductible for
comprehensive insurance (sometimes called "other than collision" coverage for fire, theft,
vandalism etc.) and $2,000,000 of Third-Party Liability coverage (also called Civil Liability
insurance coverage). Both the Montreal police report and his Quebec insurance company
concluded that he was not responsible for the accident. Which statement(s) is correct?
I) Quebec's no-fault insurance only covers the medical bills under Quebec's public
automobile insurance plan, the Rgie de l'assurance maladie du Qubec (RAMQ); Ali
must pay the $2,000 car insurance deductible and get reimbursed by the other
insurance company.
II) Ali and the other driver have Quebec insurance coverage, and both are relieved that
they do not need to pay the full amount of the deductible as Quebec's no-fault insurance
requires them to split the deductible 50:50.
III) Ali does not have a car insurance deductible to pay.
IV) Quebec's no-fault insurance covers the medical bills under Quebec's public automobile
insurance plan, the Rgie de l'assurance maladie du Qubec (RAMQ); both drivers are
not responsible for paying their car insurance deductible.
V) Ali can sue the other driver responsible for the accident for the medical bills under the
Rgie de l'assurance maladie du Qubec (RAMQ) and for wages for the two weeks out
of work.
a) II and V
b) I and V
c) II only
d) III only
e) IV only
