Most Insurance companies make their profit by not having to pay for car repairs because of good driving records. Most insurance claims cause insurance companies to pay out money. The only way they can retrieve that cost is to raise the car insurance premium of the insured or raise by a few cents the cost of car insurance spread over many insurers. So, many people do not make unneeded claims to their insurance company if it results in their rates going up.

You are driving a friends car but your car has insurance and his car has his insurance will you be covered?

Your are insured. I just called 3 agents. Progressive, Geico, and all-state. Again, every state is different. In Wisconsin, the insurance follows the car, so if you borrow someone's car, you are borrowing their insurance. This means that if you lend your car to someone, and they have an at-fault accident, your insurance will be primary (theirs is secondary), and it is likely your insurance rates that will be affected!


Whose insurance is affected when a friend gets a ticket when driving your car?
