Yes, anytime you make a claim to YOUR insurance, it will go up. That's how they get their money back. If you don't submit a claim to them, then no.
I do not necessarily agree with the answer above. What you did not indicate in your question was did the person At Fault have insurance. If they did then even though you filed a claim and your carrier paid you, they would likely recover from the at fault person's insurance. In this circumstance you insurance should not go up.
If you or the other driver makes a claim yes.
They will wait for you to contact them! If you have comprehensive and collision coverage, you can file the claim with your agent and let them handle it for you. If not, file a claim with the at-fault driver's company.
The answer depends upon whether or not you maintained collision coverage on your car. This is a type of "first party" coverage that pays for physical damage to your car, usually subject to a deductible. You could normally make a claim to your own collision insurer if you had that coverage. If the driver who backed into your car had liability insurance, you could make a claim against her.
Not in Canada. If your license is suspended, then any insurance claim that resulted from you driving while suspended would not be covered. If the car was damaged and it was parked and not being operated, then that is covered. But not if you are driving it.
More info-- one driver was speeding down a residential street late for work and hit a parked car's slightly open door and ripped it off. The parked car driver had a license and coverage but it was a new lease and had not yet added the new car to the policy. The in-motion driver had current coverage but no drivers license. Both claim the other is At Fault. Who is more screwed?
Sorry, the driver with no insurance can claim of your insurance. He/she has no legal right to lodge such unauthorised claim.
The car that rolled is not responsible, the hit and run driver is responsible. However if the police do not find that person, you are out of luck unless you have comprehensive insurance (full coverage). You can try to talk to/sue the parking lot owner...Talk to stores that may have video coverage of the incident...
It is always the at-fault party's responsiblity to pay for damages they cause in an accident. If you know who hit your car then contact their insurance company and file the claim. If you do not know who did it and you have collision coverage on your car, you can file the claim through your own insurer.
If you are excluded as a driver on a policy that means that no coverage for any type of claim will be paid on any vehicles on that policy. It also means that the insurance company will not pay for anyone else's damages caused by the excluded driver. Excluded mean no coverage at all.
No. Insurance follows the vehicle primary, driver secondary. Since the driver is at fault and there is no coverage under the vehicle itself, the drivers policy would pay for any bodily injury or property damage he may have caused. Therefore uninsured motorist coverage would not apply. The only way that driver would have coverage for himself is if he already had Med Pay coverage on his own policy.
Yes - that's the point of uninsured motorist coverage. You'll be bound by the terms of your policy so review it. But generally yes, if the at-fault driver is uninsured, you can make a claim against your uninsured motorist policy. You'll have to prove the other driver had no insurance. Generally an affidavit of no insurance, or a letter from the most recent insurer stating the policy had lapsed or was in some way not in force is sufficient.
The owner of the car that was wrongly parked still has the ability to sue. They should get the other driver's information and file a claim on their lawsuit.
