In most cases, no. There's usually a waiting period after they receive the payment * Agreed, if the policy was not in force at the time of the accident the insurer is not liable for paying damage claims.

Their is no such thing as full coverage in legal terms. What people refer to when they say that is Physical Damage Coverage for a vehicle. What physical damage coverage breaks down into 2 parts.

This does also protect the vehicle if an accident or damage results from a uninsured motorists or under insured motorists Comprehensive Coverage:(also known as other then collision) Does include a deductible, covers the vehicle from damages due to vehicle that are out of control of the insured. This would be from weather, vandalism, theft, hitting an animal, and etc. Remember, insurance company's insure vehicles of the actual cash amount at that time.

Will a homeowners insurance policy cover for an accident to an insured off property?

There is no coverage at all for an accident to an insured either off property or on property. A Homeowners policy provides coverage for structures, personal property, additional living expenses due to loss, liability coverage and medical payments. There is coverage away from premises for insured personal property provided it is due to loss from a covered cause. Coverage is generally limited to 10% of coverage C and if it is theft, insured must be temporarily residing where the theft occurred. The liability coverage provided by the policy covers the insured away from premises. These all are general statements and there are exclusions so the policy should be consulted.
