The insurer will be likely be reaching into your pocket too, next time you renew. Someone has to pay for all of that damage and Canberra's risk category has changed for sure. It will take a long time to repair all those cars, as there are only so many repairers in Canberra. Vehicles will have to be send to Victoria and NSW to be repaired and owners will wait. Some of the ones I saw on TV looked like write-offs.
