The Société de l'assurance automobile du Québec (SAAQ; English: Quebec Automobile Insurance Corporation, lit. '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 which 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.
The SAAQ also administers Quebec's driver's licenses 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 is part of the SAAQ.
In January 2021, Konrad Sioui became chairman of the board, thereby the first representative of an Indigenous community to head the board of directors of a crown corporation in Quebec.
