Best Answer

Only up to the limits of the claim. You cannot collect two identical awards from both policies. (e.g.: If the award was for 110 thousand dollars but one policy only covered up to 100 thousand. The second policy would pay the extra 10 thousand that the first policy didn't cover, but you could not collect 110 thousand dollars from BOTH policies for the same incident.) Also - if it turns out you were covered simultaneously under the provisions of both policies, the companies might want to 'subrogate' to see which company would pay what amount.
