Renewal
Deadline
February 29

All the Autoplan renewal
applications have been mailed
to B.C. motorists.

If motorists have not re-
ceived their renewals, they
should take their current 1976

to an insurance agent, the
“motor vehicle branch, govern-
ment agent's office or an ICBC
sales office,

Norman Bortnick, execu-
tive vice-president and general
manager of the Insurance Cor-
poration of B.C. said the
deadline for Autoplan renewal
is Feb. 29—“and that is the
deadline whether a motorist
has received a renewal applica-
tion or not.”

“We urge motorists to
renew as soon as possible
“because everyone will need
more time to discuss his new
coverage and to decide what
insurance is right for him.

“Every British Columbia
car owner should be aware that
the deadline is Feb. 29, but long
lineups are inevitable if motor-
ists leave renewing to the last

minute.’
