Many people do this, but it is not recommended. It is still considered an attempt to defraud. I recommend that you use this situation to check around for cheaper insurance with the new accident as a part of your quote. Some insurance agents will pull your record and not see it, and not include it in the quote, you may fly under the radar for that first year, and enjoy a lower premium, but let that be something that they do. Just be careful with disclosure laws, many insurance companies deny claims when people leave things out.

Is your auto insurance affected if another person receives a DUI in your car?

A DUI will not, it will if the person is on your policy and may increase if that person cause an accident in your car.


If you have no fault auto insurance will your insurance rates increase if you happen to be in an accident in which you were not at fault?

Generally speaking, no. However, in any moving incident/violation, your driving record is checked. If it turns out that you have a few past speeding tickets, and maybe another previous accident or two where you were not at fault, the insurance company may choose to tag you as a high-risk driver and increase your premium. On the other hand, if you are a driver with a spotless record, your rates will probably not go up in the event of an accident where you are not at fault.

Immediately after an accident, you should call your insurance company and they will tell you their responsibility in that particular state.

An insurance agent in this state is not licensed to comment on the insurance policies of another state.
