Next time you post a question, read it over before hitting "save" (your question is a little hard to understand).

Once you sign the papers for the car, it is yours. If you get in a car accident and the car gets totaled, the insurance company for the At Fault driver is responsible to pay for the "fair market value" of the car. If you are at fault and you have collision, your insurance company will pay you fair market value less the deductable.

Please be aware, if your loan was for 10,000 but your car is really only worth 8,000 then you will be stuck paying the extra 2,000 (unless you purchased gap insurance from the loan company)

Once a car is totaled it is gone. Usually the insurance company takes the car for them to sell and get some extra money and if it is claimed as a totaled vehicle I would not recommend driving it on the street where you can hurt yourself or someone else.


Can you cash a check written to you by your insurance company for a car that was totaled but still has remaining payments on it to a finance company?

Sure you can, but you're still responsible for paying off the loan to the finance company. If the check will cover the pay-off, give it to the finance company. If it doesn't, give it to them, anyway. It'll reduce your debt by that much.
