If she was driving her own car that was insured for property damage liability coverage, her policy should cover herand pay for your repairs. However, depending upon the extent of damages to your car, her insurer may opt to declare it to be a total loss. If so, the insurer will normally pay to you the actual cash value of the car, which roughly translates to the market value of the car as of the time of the loss. This takes into account make, model, condition, mileage, and similar factors. Often, an insurer will "total" a car when the cost of repair is equal to or exceeds 80% of its actual cash value. Frequently, doing so is required by law.
Boy does it ever. You should be sitting down when you get the letter from your insurance company. Sorry!
If you were driving within the law old enough held a valid licence at the time and indeed included on the insurance theres a chance you will be covered by the insurance but seeing as it was your mothers car and insurance and through the result of an accident caused by your own admittance by yourself which takes all blame away from her then this being the case the insurance would still have to pay out on her insurance policy.
The insurance company is not going to force anyone to pay for damages to a car. The person that was driving the car and or the owner of that car that caused the accident is liable for the damages to the other vehicles involved in the accident. If there is insurance coverage for that damage then the insurance company will pay. However if the driver of the at fault vehicle is excluded from the insurance policy then the insurance company may be relieved from it's responsibility to pay on behalf of the owner of the vehicle.
Because the accident could have been caused by the use of drugs.
Yes, If the accident was your fault, then it is your fault. Whether or not they have insurance has nothing to do with who's at fault, or who actually caused the accident.
Basically, you have to pay for insurance. If you get into an accident, you are at least partly responsible for the damage that accident caused, whether or not you were at fault. Insurance helps to pay for that damage.
It is advisable to call your insurance company immediately in any accident. If you do not, they may think that you are trying to defraud them by hiding the accident.
Hopefully, both you and your friend have insurance. If you do, you call the insurance companies. If the other guy caused the accident, you let the insurance companies fight it out. Likewise, if just one has insurance, you call that company. On the other hand, if you caused the accident and both you and your friend have insurance, you call the insurance companies. If just one has insurance, you call that company. If neither you nor your friend have insurance and you caused the accident, you are in deep trouble. You could be out a lot of money. In either case, you only talk to the cops. You do not assume any blame even if you are at fault. You just give the facts. You can say the light was red when I entered the intersection. You have to tell the cop the facts or you can go to prison. Still, you do not say, "It was my fault." You do not assume blame. You do not make value judgements.
Report the accident to your insurance company. If this was a single car accident - meaning yours- your insurance will have to pay for the repairs minus your deductible. If another party caused the accident you need to turn their insurance information over to your company and they will take it from there.
If they were not parked illegally then they are not responsible for your accident.
caused- based, single issue (mavericks)
Yes,, That's what it's for. It pays for damages you caused to another.
