Société de l'assurance automobile du Québec

'Society of assuring automobiles of Quebec') is a Crown corporation responsible for licensing drivers and vehicles in the province of Quebec and providing public auto insurance that insures all drivers, passengers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists involved in road collisions whether or not they are at fault (no-fault insurance).

Coverage, however, is limited to personal injuries; damage to property is covered by private insurers.

[1] The SAAQ also administers Quebec's driver's licences and vehicle licence plates (analogous to the DMVs of many US states) and seeks to prevent road accidents, particularly through advertising campaigns in the media and in schools.

The Contrôle routier Québec [fr] is part of the SAAQ.
