How many times more is a Driver under 18 likely to have a fatal accident than the average driver?
If you are under 18 years of age, your risk of a fatal crash is about 2 1/2 times that of the "average" driver, and your risk of an injury crash is 3 times higher than that of the average driver.
Why is a drunken driver likely to be cause of an accident?
because he is unconscious
Is a teenage driver more likely to have an accident than an adult driver?
Yes. A teenage driver hasn't the experience and judgment that most older drivers have.
No driver's license but involved in an accident that wasn't your fault?
Not really sure actually. In the eye of the law the accident will most likely be considered your fault.
Heavy amphetamine use?
Makes a driver less coordinated and at times more likely to be involved in an accident
If an unlicensed driver is in an accident with an insured car will the insurance company still cover the damage?
Most likely yes.. but your rates are going up, and the driver will be cited.
Should I keep the high deductible insurance on my teenage driver or look for a lower rate?
That would depend on how likely your teenage driver is to get into an accident, how dependable they are. It may end up costing you more in the long run if they do happen to get into an accident.
When you are at fault in an accident and the underinsured coverage for the other driver will likely be used can his insurance company collect from you?
In most cases, yes.
Who is at fault in left hand turn accident?
It will likely be the person making the left turn who is at fault. It is the turning driver's responsibility to make certain that the turning maneuver can be completed in a safe manner without interference with opposing traffic. WHile the other driver who hit you MAY have contributed to the accident, it was the turning driver that precipitated it.
If someone has a car accident and does not have insurance how is the other motorist compensated for damages?
Your insurance policy most likely has a clause that protects you up to a certin amount if you are in an accident with an uninsured driver. You can also hire a lawer and sue the other driver for any damages (along with lawer and court fees).
Given that there are 5.7 million traffic accidents per year what is the chance that a randomly selected driver has an accident?
Without knowing how many drivers there are, this very much simplified chance cannot be calculated. In real life each driver has a different chance of having an accident - the cost of motor insurance is dependant upon the risk (chance) that you are likely to (a) have an accident and (b) how severe that accident is likely to be; if everyone had the same chance, everyone would pay the same motor insurance premiums.
Will your insurance cover you if you drink and drive and get in an accident?
Yes, most likely. Review your policy to be sure. However, if the drunk driver caused damages in excess of his or her policy limit, the drunk driver can be held personally liable.
