generally speaking in California your former boyfriend would be primarily liable in the event of an accident, however if it was some kinda quadriplegic awful thing occured and you had knowledge that he was an unsafe driver, theoretically you would be liable under a negligent entrustment theory.

Your car was in an accident in Florida It is registered in New York the insurance was in cancellation the car was not being driven by you and was totaled what is your recourse?

Your question is extremely confusing. Whose car is registered in New York? Whose car lacks insurance? Whose car caused the accident? Who was driving the car? All of that may or may not be relevant. In Florida the person who caused the accident is usually responsible for property damage whether or not he or she has car insurance. It does not matter where the car is registered. In Florida, people go after both the driver and registered owner. The driver caused the accident and the registered owner gave the driver permission to drive the vehicle. Collecting one cent is frequently a different matter.

If your daughter is not a resident of your household but is named on your insurance how involved ar you if she drives her boyfriend's car?

I'm not sure I understand the question. If her boyfriend has insurance, then she is covered under his policy as long as she had permission to drive his car. As far as your liability if she has an accident, it all depends on the extent of the accident and if a law auit is filed for more than her boyfriend's policy limit. Then there could be potential to attack your insurance policy which names her as a driver.


Do you have auto insurance if you are on someone else's insurance policy?

What happens after your car is totaled and you only have liability?

If a car is totaled in an accident and only liability insurance is present, there is a chance that the other party's insurance will pay for the vehicle if the accident was their fault. If a car is totaled, but no others were involved, then the responsibility falls on the registered owner. This will not release the registered owner from paying for the vehicle, either, if money is still owed on the car.

What are the ramifications for a mother who lets her adult son drive her insured vehicle In other words how will it affect her if he is at fault in an accident which causes a great deal of damage?

typcially all insurance stays with the car...meaning whomever is driving your vehicle (with your permission, and subject to any exclusions your policy may have)....is insured under the policy if they have an at fault accident, it affects THAT VEHICLE policy regardless of who is driving...so the ramifications are your son has an accident that is his fault...your policy is subject to increase, non renewal etc.

Who insurance is responsible if your daughter was driving her boyfriends car and got into an accident and the other driver did not produce current coverage but your daughters boyfriend did?

There are several issues here. Who's fault was it to cause the accident. Are you in a "no fault" state? Did the other driver have insurance or just did not have proof? Does the boyfriend have a uninsured motorist rider on his policy? These are questions that have to be answered before we can proceed.


Can you continue to keep one state's auto insurance and move to another state?

If you change your registration to that state, you'll have to change your insurance with it. Keeping your car registered in a state where you do not reside can result in your policy being cancelled, or you getting a ticket for not having your car registered where you reside. (Especially if you get into an accident.)
