Depending on the situation and the location in which the accident happened, both the driver and the owner of the boat can be legally liable for damages caused. That's why it's always important to have boat insurance, and why it's equally important to be careful who you allow to drive your boat.
United Marine Underwriters provides boat insurance nationwide and has a comprehensive boat insurance guide that can answer a lot of other questions about coverage and miscellaneous details.
Well in 2 different states that I have lived and worked in the insurance follows the vehicle not the person. If someone is letting you borrow there vehicle then they are accepting responsibility for your actions, therefore the accident would be covered on there policy. Of course I would check with state laws to make sure.
the person that owns the car
I believe most insurances will cover the damages if the car is insured and you have a license, but if you do not have a license the insurance will not cover anything you are both liable. Your friend is liable for loning you the car without a license and you are liable for driving it.
Yes.
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.
The owner of the truck is liable for all damages and injuries as a result of an accident if found at fault. Normally these would be paid by the insurance company if there was an existing policy. Insurance policies are far cheaper than paying these expenses out of pocket.
Depends on your condition
This question is not very clear. But a passenger cannot be held liable for injuries under most circumstances. Unless said passenger is also the owner or insurance policy holder of the car found at fault in an accident. Where you live, and where the accident occurred is irrelevant.
Not unless you are somehow liable for your mothers injuries. Accidents happen everywhere, in the home, in the park, at church and on the sidewalks. Your moms existing medical insurance will see to her health needs.
The driver's insurance would then be considered "secondary," meaning if the owner of the auto didn't have insurance, then if the person driving the car had insurance, they would be liable.
Liability always rests with the at fault party. The insurance company covers the property not the person.
Typically, the uninsured driver will be cited for it, and your insurance co. is liable for the damages.
