Is an unlicensed driver crashes a vehicle that is insured what happens?
Technically, the insurance company should cover the costs of the other vehicle. If the unlicensed driver took the vehicle without permission, the owner may even be able to collect on the collision insurance to cover part of their expenses, but if he/she does that he/she will probably have to show a police report that the unlicensed driver took the vehicle without permission and that it was technically, automobile theft. On the other hand, the insurance costs for the owner may to up dramatically whether the owner gave permission or not. It all depends on the insurance company and how they view the circumstances. The unlicensed driver may not be allowed to get a drivers license for several years, depending on state laws.
If you have full insurance on your car and it is totaled by an unlicensed driver what happens with your insurance and payments for the car?
If this unlicensed driver was driving your car with your knowledge, you are screwed. But if you mean an unlicensed driver hit your car, if you have full coverage you should be able to collect on your insurance. The insurance will make the check to the leinholder and they will give you any excess or expect you to make up any shortage to pay off the loan. In some cases, if you did give permission for the uninsured driver, your insurance company will pay for the loss but make you sign an exclusion stating that the driver will not be covered in the future for any reason. You would be liable for full cost if it happens again. You can also expect a spike in your rates if they reside with you.

You may be able to collect. The only case in which you would possibly not be able is if the state you are in requires you to be insured also. In that case you would have been breaking the law. If you were required by law to have insurance than you shouldn't have been there. You would need to speak wit an atty who is knowledgable about the laws in your state. Yes. The legality issue of the uninsured driver is a totally different issue than the legal responsiblility of the driver at fault for damages incurred in the accident.

Can you sue the state if you are in an accident and the responsible party does not have ins?
Your only obvious course of action would be to show that the state knew or should have known that the other driver did not have required insurance and that they did not do anything reasonable to prevent the driver from driving without insurance. This would be extremely difficult to prove. You are probably better off going after the driver in a civil action. If he/she has any assets, you may be able to attach them in a judgment.
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.
