Do they deduct any money I may get from vehicle insurer

Were you injured in your car accident? LTD Policies tend to be very specific advising who they require money from - such as - CPP-D, Retirement pension (if someone is getting early retirement payments). Read your Policy carefully to see what other types of income could result in a reduction of your Disability payments.
Yes, you have an obligation to the LTD insurer report things like a car accident. It is a complicated question over whether a LTD insurer can deduct funds paid via a car accident claim. This is very dependent on your policy and the specific laws in your province.
