Auto Insurance Question

Getting a company vehicle and looking to convert my current personal vehicle and insurance to a casual driver. I am looking for quotes online and it seems as though none of them are giving the option of marking the car as casual/rarely used and I feel like the quotes aren't too different from what I'm paying now as a full-time/primary driver logging significantly more mileage.

What's the best way to approach this? Contact a broker? Call my current insurance company directly?

Thanks

dropping your annual mileage to 12-15K kms should be enough for a low mileage discount, no? thats the typical threshold for low mileage discounts though that will vary by insurance company

unless thats still not enough for your use

Just tell your current insurer it will no longer be driven daily for work and drop the yearly mileage to 10K or whatever the minimum is.

call your broker and advise of the changes you wish to make to your personal vehicle...
