pay up to the value of the damages of their car without receiving any form of compensation,
although they weren’t at fault.” – Viraf Baliwalla, President of MyCarIsWorthLess.com.

Canada
According to the Canadian Transportation Safety Board, about 160,000 road accidents
occur in Canada each year.
Each year Canadians lose $1.2 Billion in diminished value of their vehicle from being
involved in a ‘no fault of their own’ type of accident.
Approximately 15% of vehicles on the road are involved in a vehicle damage claim annually. About 10% of those claims result in a total loss. 90% are repaired and have a claim registered against their history and therefore incur 'diminished value' which amounts to billions of dollars nationwide annually.
Studies also have shown that car accidents cost Canada a total of $62.7 bil lion every year.

What protects you if your house burns down? INSURANCE! What
protects you if there is a flood in your city? INSURANCE! And what
protects you if you get into a car accident? INSURANCE!
In return for a paid monthly bill to the Insurance Company of your
choice, they promise to protect your most prized possessions if an
unfortunate incident occurs. But what happens when the insurance
companies fall short of their promises? Fasten your seat belts
everyone because today we are going into the world of Car Insurance.
Good afternoon everyone, my name is Cameron Hayley, and I’m
truly excited to be here today as a part of something that will not only
transform the car insurance industry, but something that will change
the lives of drivers all over Canada.
I want you to picture this with me: Imagine you're driving along in
your brand new car, minding your own business, and out of the blue
someone rear-ends you. You take down their information, call the
police, then your insurance company, and take your car to the nearest
body shop where it is repaired so well you can't tell it was ever hit.
After the repairs are paid for by your car insurance, you think you're
in good shape and haven’t lost a cent. Or have you? I’m here today to
tell you that you can receive cash after your crash. Here’s the
breakdown: Even if a vehicle is repaired properly by the insurance
company, the vehicle still has an inherent decrease in value just
because of a claim being registered against it. When you try to sell
the car, you may find its worth less than others of the same make,
model and year - simply because it's been in an accident.
The difference can add up to thousands of dollars, depending on the
age and initial cost of the vehicle.
Since Canadian insurance companies don't usually cover the
diminished value, you have to fight for compensation.
Most people don't know they are eligible to claim for diminished
value and therefore don't ask for it. Nor do they know how to
calculate their loss.
In plain English, if someone hits you, you have now suffered a loss in
vehicle value through no fault of your own. Their liability coverage
is responsible for covering your loss .That's where
MyCarIsWorthLess.com steps in.
I am proud to introduce to you a new wave of protection. A new era
of insurance. A new platform to rise to. MyCarIsWorthLess.com is
the first completely neutral online tool that is designed by experts in
both the car and insurance business that delivers a fair and reasonable
diminished value calculator after auto accident insurance claim result
instantly.
For only $39, MyCarIsWorthLess.com diminished value calculator,
generates an instant professional opinion report of inherent
diminished value which can help you reclaim your loss according to
the rules of your jurisdiction. So why suffer a loss when it’s that easy
to protect yourself?
Being a Canadian boy, I am thrilled that this is being launched in
Canada, and what better place to kick it off than here in Ottawa, our
nation’s capital.
I can’t wait to travel across the country, showing Canadians this new
and exciting protection program. And I really can’t thank
MyCarIsWorthLess.com enough for including me in this fun and
interesting opportunity.
So as I leave here today, I encourage you to check out
MrCarIsWorthLess.com because you never know when you might
need cash after your crash! Thank you.
