Probably not BUT if you have been convicted for this YOU should tell your insurance provider yourself. As if you do not it will likely invalidate your policy. Insurance companies aren't notified but all insurance companies have access to a database that is updated whenever you get convicted of a moving violation. Your insurance company has access to this database at anytime. If you get too many convictions of moving violations then you risk losing your insurance coverage because you are too much of a risk. Depending on your insurer in it will take a few years before your moving violations "fall off" and you can begin with a "clean slate" again which means you can be insured again. Actually insurance companies will insure you but those that will will charge you a very high insurance premium until your convicted moving violations "falls off" after your insurer's designated timeframe. Note that you must be CONVICTED of the moving violation before it goes on your record. It is always a good idea to dispute the conviction and fight it in court as it takes only your time versus paying much higher premiums which cost you money. It all depends if you have more time than money or more money than time. Yes, making wrong turn, getting cited by a police officer THEN convicted in court will allow your insurance company to know you're being a bad driver.
Absolutely, the fact that you are cited or not cited will not apply. The insurance company will determine your fault. For example, an accident caused on private property doesn't fall under police jurisdiction but you still caused it so your company would raise your rates.
Report the claim anyways. Tell the truth and let the insurance company decide how to proceed. Remember, if you are paying for the insurance, you should expect claims to be paid if you have the coverage.
If you have insurance call YOUR insurance and they will pay for your damages and then they will subrogate (meaning they will go after the other persons insurance for reimbursement) If the other person has been cited then they are clearly at fault. Nobody can deny that, make sure you contact the police department for a copy of the police report as well.
Most likely yes.. but your rates are going up, and the driver will be cited.
If there was a police officer involved then you would probably be cited for not having auto insurance. If you are found to be at fault then legal action could be brought against you by either the other party or the other parties insurance company.
I would not drive a car without an insurance policy on it as you could be cited.
File with your own company anyways. They have a 'no fault' claim that they will pay for you now, and it will be up to them to collect the money from the other company when it is resolved who is at fault.
In an insurance company battle, the fact that you were cited will carry weight. The fact that the court did not find you guilty will not relieve you of liability by itself.
Typically, the uninsured driver will be cited for it, and your insurance co. is liable for the damages.
This may result in a situation where each driver will need to file a claim with their own insurance company for the damage to there vehicle and then the two insurance companies may make a decision as to who was at fault at a later date. Sometimes fault is never determined.
Depends On How Strict Your Insurance Company Is, Also How Long Were The Plates Expired. But From Your Info Sounds Like You Should Be OK. Do Hope This Helps
