Your insured has leased an automobile for three years and requires automobile insurance.

The correct answer is B . When a person leases an automobile for a term such as three years , the proper Ontario auto policy is generally the O.A.P. 1 Owner’s Policy , with the policy set up to reflect the leasing arrangement and any required endorsements or interests of the lessor. Although the leasing company holds legal ownership, the lessee has care, custody, control, and ongoing use of the vehicle, so the risk is insured in the same practical manner as an owned vehicle under the standard owner’s auto form.

A is incorrect because the O.A.F. 2 Driver’s Form is intended for someone who needs liability coverage for driving automobiles they do not regularly own or lease , not for a specific leased vehicle used as their principal automobile. C is also incorrect because the O.P.F. 6 Non-Owned Automobile Form is for liability arising from the use of automobiles not owned by the insured, typically in commercial settings, not for personal insurance on a leased private passenger automobile. D is wrong because the lessee must arrange the required insurance; the leasing company does not normally insure the vehicle for the lessee’s personal use exposure.

From a RIBO exam standpoint, treat a long-term leased auto like an owned auto for policy form purposes : use O.A.P. 1 , properly set up for the lease.
