ICBC Pays for Hero's Car Repairs After Highway Heroics
Randy Douglas, a Victoria driver, used his car to stop a vehicle whose driver suffered a fatal heart attack on the Patricia Bay Highway. His own car sustained about 300 in damage, which ICBC will pay, following an internal review that praised his heroic actions and acknowledged the lack of collision coverage. ICBC’s Victoria claims centre handled the claim and notified senior officials, with the minister later informed. The outcome preserves Douglas’s protection despite no insurance coverage for this loss.
