6. What is the difference between collision and comprehensive coverage?
   
   Collision covers accidental loss or damage to your snowmobile because of a collision with an object or another snowmobile or if your snowmobile is damaged if it rolls over. Comprehensive covers anything other than a collision loss. Examples of comprehensive losses that are covered include: vandalism, theft, fire, explosion, water or flood, contact with birds or animals, damage from falling objects.
   
   
7. Do I need to insure my snowmobile trailer or is that covered on my auto insurance policy?
   
   Damage to your trailer is not covered by your auto policy. We can usually add comprehensive and collision damage for your snowmobile trailer for as little as $10 per year when you fully insure at least one snowmobile.
   
   
8. Does my snowmobile insurance cover me if I ride in other states or Canada?
   
   Your policy automatically adjusts to meet other states’ minimum coverage requirements. Your coverage also extends to Canada.

11. Is there a lay-up period on the insurance policy?
    
    Yes, in most of our states, the premium is discounted for a lay-up period from April 15th through October 15th for liability, uninsured motorist and collision. If the covered snowmobile is being operated on snow or ice between these dates, then the lapse in coverage does not apply. The lay-up period does not apply to comprehensive coverage.
