Re: ICBC... Stealth tax?
You can make an argument that both systems are fair depending on your criteria. Because I'm in a low risk group, my premium is subsidising those in a high risk group - and I don't think it's very fair. Although, once I stopped treating it as insurance and just accepted that it was a car tax I found it much less annoying.
As noted, cost of motoring is more or less the same overall, but driving more fancy wheels here tends to be cheaper. Run of the mill vehicles not so much so
