If you buy a new car on a weekend is your new car insured if you have insurance on the old one?

Replacement or Additional VehicleGenerally, if the vehicle replaces another vehicle already insured, it will have the same coverage as the one being replaced. However, for comp or collision to continue, you must notify the carrier/insurer within 30 days of acquiring the vehicle. If it is an ADDITIONAL vehicle (not replacing one already shown on the declarations page), you will automatically receive the broadest coverage currently on the policy for any vehicle listed in the declarations page. NOTE that that means if you have insured only vehicles that are older, with no outstanding loans, and you carry only Liability coverages for that vehicle, that is the only coverage this newer vehicle will have. The obvious problem with that is if you are in an accident and the new vehicle is damaged before you can contact your insurance company, there will be NO COVERAGE for the damages TO THIS NEW VEHICLE. MOST auto policies provide coverage for a 'new' (additional) or 'replacement' auto, when you already have the same coverage for the prior car. For example: Let's say I own a 2003 Honda. I purchase a 2006 Toyota on a Saturday afternoon, or for that matter, on a Wednesday morning. If I trade it in, the 'new' car will automatically have the same coverage as the vehicle I traded in, for up to 30 days.

Protect Your Car with Collision Car Insurance?

Drivers are always looking for ways to save money, whether that means switching cars, insurance companies, changing coverage limits, or removing coverages altogether, like collision insurance. Although it cost less to have a policy that only covers liability, in an accident, it may cost more to pay out of pocket for vehicle repairs than for the insurance. Liability insurance only covers the other driver, but for consumers who want to protect their vehicle, collison coverage is necessary. Collision insurance covers the policyholder's vehicle in a collision. Without this coverage, the policyholder's vehicle cannot be repaired or replaced by the insurance company, but from their own pocket.Obtaining Collision CoverageColliison coverage is easy to obtain. Most companies offer this coverage, though some deny this coverage to vehicles that are too old. It is best to contact a licensed insurance representative to purchase collision coverage along with the state required liability coverages. The agent will recommend a deductible, which is what the policyholder must pay before the insurance company covers the loss. Some companies allow their insureds to carry no deductible, but with most companies: the higher the deductible, the lower the premium. It is also wise to remember that the claim cannot be covered unless the amount of damages exceeds the amount of the deductible. For instance, a $300 repair will not be covered if the deductible is $500.Who Needs Collision CoverageNot everyone needs collision coverage. Older cars and vehicles that have been totaled are not worth much. However, what every consumer must consider is whether they have the money to replace or repair the vehicle themselves? If not, the cost of the coverage could be less than a repair. If the insured has a loan, collision coverage may even be required by the lienholder.Collision insurance protects the policyholder's vehicle. Without this coverage, the insured must pay out of pocket for repairs. This insurance can be obtained from a licensed agent; however not every driver needs this coverage. For those with newer vehicles, a loan, or who don't have the means to pay out-of-pocket cost, collision coverage should be on their policy.
