This is how they evaluate the risk that you pose. Insurance companies use many different variables to evaluate the risk of a loss occurring. Driving record is only one of these factors. A person who receives several tickets for speeding or other violations will have an accident, guaranteed.

If your insurance will not cover your son during the 6 months he is driving with a learner's permit what happens if he is involved in a car accident while driving with an adult?

Your auto insurance will cover your son while on a lerners permit. Check with your company as some require that he be listed as a driver and you must pay premium while others do not require that he be listed until he gets his regular license. If you insurance is telling you that there is no coverage while he is on the permit then you need a different insurance company.


How do you get an ex boyfriend off my car insurance they are saying i can not unless i prove he has other insurance i don't know where he is and the last i heard he had a suspended license?

It seems that the insurance company thinks that you and he still have the same address. I doubt an insurance company would require someone who does not reside at your address to be listed as an insured on your policy simply because he was your boyfriend. I don't know how to access DMV records, but private investigators do. Hopefully the address on his driving record is no longer the same as yours.

Does driving semi trucks require a special type of automobile insurance?

Yes. All commercial driving requires both a special type of license as well as a special "rider" on your insurance. However, the legal requirement for the insurance is most likely met by the company that owns the insurance-- that is, the truck is what is covered. So, the law probably does not require you to get additional insurance. As a semi driver, you will eventually want to be insured for personal liability-- so that your family is protected should you cause an accident during your job.

Why a family member is resticted in auto insurance?

Some insurance companies will require policyholders to sign a driver exclusion for family members if you claim the individual does not drive your vehicle. If the insurance company has previously paid a claim for an unlisted driver, they may require that you list the driver on your policy or sign a driver exclusion that restricts that driver from driving your vehicle. If a resident of your household has tickets and accidents and is not rated on your policy, the company will require a driver exclusion to prevent increasing your policy if they are rated.
