If a truckdriver hits a car who pays the deductible the driver or the owner of the truck?
THE POLICY HOLDER, WHO IS USUALLY THE OWNER OF THE TRUCK IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE.

If the car owner went through his coverage first to get repairs done, then the car owner is responsible for the deductible. Then the car owners insurance would go through subrugation to the truck drivers insurance to get full payment of the loss. When that is completed, the car owner would get his deductible returned to him.

Driving is considered a privilege and not a right. Because it is a privilege drivers are required to prove they are financially responsible.
