Insurance is VERY specific when it comes to when coverage starts. If you had the accident BEFORE you got insurance any damage sustained before you purchased the policy damage would not be covered. If you had an accident after the purchase of the policy then any damages would be covered.
Generally, your coverage expires at midnight on the last day of your policy. Until then, you are covered. There may be some time limit during which you must report an accident, but if it happened while you were covered, the insurance company should take care if it.
As with any Insurance Company, as long as you registered the car with your car insurance company, then you are covered either same day or next billing cycle. Usually same day.
No. After midnight, it's another day.
Depends on when it was cancelled. Before or after the accident? When did you get the cancellation notice? If you were cancelled before, then obviously you were uninsured. If the accident was your fault, then any costs are yours alone and not the insurance company's.
Your insurance is either valid on the day of your accident or it isn't. If you are asking what happens if the policy was valid on the day of the accident but lapses before the claim is settled then the coverage that was in effect the day of the accident still applies. If your policy was not in effect the day of the accident then coverage will not apply.
Yes. I have household insurance and it covered us when we had a fire followed by a flood all on the same day. It was terrible i was lucky we had insurance.
You must buy all coverages before an accident. If their is an accident, you cannot buy coverages after an accident, and try to get the insurance to pay for it.
Then you where not covered. You are personally responsible for all damages you incurred unless the accident was not your fault. You should not have been driving a car without insurance. You now must pay for that mistake. Learn from it.
You are still within the policy protection period so yes, you are covered as long as the insurance you purchased covered that accident to begin with. It does not matter how long you are staying away, as long as the plicy is in force while you are still traveling. Think about it. If you buy a 1 year term life policy and die within that 1st year, you are covered. If you die within one year and a day...tough luck on your family. 4lifeguild
If the insurance is not valid on the day of the accident, there is no coverage.
Maybe. Some insurance policies have a grace period. Therefore, depending on the circumstances you may be covered. You need to call your agent asap. Not if you are with Safe Auto. They dont care if you are 15 mins late with a payment. Most places have a grace period though.
