Some good news for many people left with water-logged vehicles after the flood.
Most Albertans carry insurance that will cover the damage.
Eighty per cent of people in the province carry comprehensive auto insurance.
Randy Loyk, with the Alberta Motor Association, tells The Calgary Herald people with coverage should contact their insurance company and leave the situation in the company’s hands.
Loyk says the worst thing you can do is to try and start your vehicle if it’s been submerged.
He recommends disconnecting the battery, and having it towed.
