- **ICBC:** Basic insurance, CA$5 million liability, collision (CA$1,000 deductible), comprehensive (CA$300 deductible / CA$200 windshield), and active RoadStar; MS and LK are listed drivers.
- **ICBC RoadStar for this rental:** up to CA$1 million rental liability; rental damage/theft with CA$300 deductible; loss of use up to CA$250. ICBC requires LK to be shown or included as a permitted driver on the rental contract; the current agreement lists MS only.
- **AmEx Cobalt / MS's card:** eligible rental theft/damage coverage has no deductible. AmEx covers secondary drivers whether or not listed; LK qualifies as a spouse/authorized driver under California law. AmEx does not cover third-party liability or injuries. The 2026 Chevrolet Traverse is below the CA$85,000 MSRP limit.
- **Liability:** RoadStar only; AmEx provides none.
- **Liability:** AmEx provides none. RoadStar provides up to CA$1 million for the rental. ICBC's official guide also says the CA$5 million Owner's Certificate liability can transfer to a rental as excess coverage, subject to conditions; it does not replace RoadStar or remove the spouse-permitted-driver condition.
**ICBC driver action:** have SIXT add LK as a permitted driver in writing before she drives. She should bring her valid physical licence and photo ID.
