Many national car insurance companies will vastly increase your rates or cancel your policy altogether after a drunk driving conviction or an administrative DMV.
No he have to listed as a second third or household driver for being cover by insurance
The owner of the car is liable for the accident itself and the damage. However, the insurance company might have to pay for it, depending on the owners insurance cover.
You do not have to reimburse your insurance company if the accident is the fault of the other driver and the claim is made on their insurance. If the accident is the fault of the other driver and their insurance does not cover everything and you make a claim on your insurance for reimbursement, your insurance will subrogate (collect back) from the other company.
Check with your specific insurance company but in general, no. If a licensed driver has permission to drive the car then the insuring company covers that driver. If your company has a specific policy against that, you need to know that. Many years ago, one company had a policy that identified a roommate as part of the driver's household and wouldn't cover that driver. It is the policy that will tell you, or ask your insurance guy.
You may need to check with the insurance company. Most companies will cover accidents that happen when a car is borrowed by a licensed driver.
Probably. When you purchase insurance, you are insuring the car. If you drive someone else's car and have an accident, their insurance should cover the costs (but their insurance *may* sue your insurance company for compensation/reimbursement.)
If you have comprehensive insurance, your policy will cover the damages (less a deductable). In this case, your insurance company will sue the at fault driver. You can also sue the at fault driver for damages (if you do not have comprehensive).
What happens when an insured driver hits someone depends on the state you live in. In a no-fault state you present your claim to your insurance company for payment. In a tort state, you would sue the driver for compensation. If you have uninsured driver coverage, then your insurance company should cover you and/or your vehicle, up to a certain amount. You should check with your insurance company to be sure.
If you are willing to charge this driver with auto theft it probably will. If not, the insurance company will assume you are giving him permission after the fact.
no, the driver has to be on your insurance or have there own insurance. if your driving and the persons with you then yes
Most likely yes.. but your rates are going up, and the driver will be cited.
Car insurance covers you for accidents, fire and theft of your vehicle depending on what type of insurance you take out. You will need to get a quote from a car insurance company to find out how much your insurance will cost and what it will cover you for in the event of needing to make a claim.
