TORONTO, March 1, 2017 /CNW/ – A recent survey of Ontario drivers raises concerns about their ability to recognize, and therefore reject and report, auto insurance fraud.
The survey conducted by Ipsos for the Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) asked a series of questions to gauge drivers’ knowledge and attitudes toward auto insurance fraud. When put to the test, 27 per cent of drivers received a failing grade when confronted with accident scenarios and true or false statements. Baby Boomers, aged 55 and over, were most knowledgeable, while Millennials, aged 18-34, were least likely to identify acts of fraud.
