Sure AWD is a great feature for a new driver to have especially in MN. Because with AWD the driver doesn't have to decide whether or not the conditions are bad enough to put the vehicle in four wheel drive. Because the AWD system puts itself into four wheel when it senses it needs to be, this happens instantly, then takes itself out when it feels it safe to. Another thing AWD is good to have is there are times when you would never put your car in four wheel but wish you could for help staring from a stop or going around cruves on the highway when its raining out. I live in MN and I've driven front wheel, 4x4, and AWD and the best by far is the AWD. Another way to go might be a front wheel drive car with traction control. Traction conrol kind of acts like a AWD.
The driver that hit the parked vehicle would be at fault.
this would be a destination.
Did you and the driver switch off as drivers.
it would be the driver/owner of the vehicle...the insurance (assuming there is ins) on the vehicle would be liable for the repair to the fence assuming of course that the driver of the vehicle had the owners permission to drive subject to any exclusions in the policy
Car insurance typically follows the owner of the vehicle, not the driver. In the cae of an "excluded driver", unless that driver has his own policy that assumes coverage for a "borrowed" car, the original vehicle owner would be considered pursuable as an uninsured motorist.
A seat belt violation is the responsibility of the driverof the vehicle. The age of the offending passenger is irrelevant.The driver is always the one ticketed, because he is the one who has the driver's license and is in control of the vehicle. Like the captain of a ship, the driver is responsible for everything that occurs in or on the vehicle, especially while it is in motion.It depends on local laws. Generally, the driver receives the ticket unless the passenger is at least 15 or 16 depending on the state. Minnesota will ticket the passenger directly at 15, Wisconsin will ticket them directly at 16. Which state are you in?
The vehicle owner should have a policy on the vehicle. If you are an occasional permissive driver of their vehicle there would likely be coverage.
Yes. If the passenger is hurt in an accident caused by the driver, the passenger is fully entitled to sue the driver. In fact even if the passenger is a spouse of the driver, the passenger can sue.
The driver would need to step on the brake pedal when braking a vehicle equipped with anti-lock brakes. FYI, the driver would also need to step on the brake pedal when braking a vehicle that is NOT equipped with anti-lock brakes. Hope this helps.
Yes. Ultimately the driver is responsible for the vehicle and for everything that happens to/by it. If the driver wasn't responsible, who would you suggest might be?
You would have to contact the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority) at Swansea... Write to them at:- Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency Swansea SA6 7JL
Your VIN, or "vehicle identification number" can be located on two areas on your vehicle. Your vehicle identification number can be found on the driver side door jamb as a sticker; or, it can be found on the driver side dashboard. It is seventeen digits long.
