A motor accident claim will make one's insurance premiums go up. Most insurance companies will do this at the time of renewal though.

If your daughter lets a friend drive your car and they have an accident who is responsible?

My boyfriend was driving my car and had an accident. My insurance company paid the damages but his insurance premiums went up. Mine did not increase. The points follow the driver. It has been a few years but I am not sure if it has changed. Your insurance agent should be able to inform you. I didn't want to call them at the time but I did and was assured even though they paid for it, I was not penalized nor were my premiums increased.

Same rules apply as if it was your own car. Make sure you get the insurance information from the person that was at fault and immediately call that insurance company and file your claim.

If the other persons insurance denies the claim then the owner of the car will have to make a claim under their policy.

How do you make an insurance claim when someone hits you if you dont have insurance and they do?

You don't need to have insurance to collect on an insurance policy. Just call their claims department and they will get it started.The only issue is that in some states, such as New York, insurance is mandatory in order to register an automobile and be able to drive it. If you are in such a state, and you file a claim for an accident in which you did not have insurance, you could well be charged for driving without insurance and you would probably lose your license.

What to do if you have a car accident and no car insurance?

Your stuffedIn the UK it is an offense to drive a motor vehicle without a valid policy of motor insurance. If however the car accident was caused by the other vehicle driver you would still be entitled to recover compensation for your injuries and vehicle damage from the other driver. See the related link entitled "car accident claim" for a description of how to prove who was at fault in a car accident. If you caused the accident - the Motor Insurers Bureau would meet the compensation claim for the other driver under the Uninsured Drivers Agreement but the MIB might seek to recover any compensation paid directly from you. See the related link entitled "accident car insurance" for a full description of motor insurance and the MIB.Same scenario in The United States. In the State Of New Hampshire , there is no requirement of the state to have insurance. If you have a car financed, the financial institution will require that you have full coverage but other wise, you can drive freely withou5t insurance. But if you have an accident and you are the cause and have no insurance, you can be cited for no insurance, and the financial ramifications can be ruining. Be smart, at least carry the minimum of liability.
