One of my family members was hit by a driver who carried insurance but was an "excluded" driver on the policy of the car she was driving. After talking to the other person's insurance company, an excluded driver is essentially equivalent to an uninsured motorist. That means that his/her insurance company will not represent them and that, if they are liable for the accident, your insurance company can go after them personally for the damages.
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.
A named insured person can be an excluded driver on an automobile liability policy in New Mexico, if the policy holder wishes to remove a driver from the policy. The policy holder will have to notify the insurance company to make the changes.
the accident is cover by insurance if the driver did not have insurance but the owner dose then it should cover for uninsured motorist if the driver was not a excluded driver of the vehicle a excluded driver is like a relative that lives the the policy holder but is not on the policy as a driver
Car insurance typically follows the owner of the vehicle, not the driver. In the cae of an "excluded driver", unless that driver has his own policy that assumes coverage for a "borrowed" car, the original vehicle owner would be considered pursuable as an uninsured motorist.
If an excluded operator wrecks a car that is covered by the policy excluding that driver there is no coverage on that policy. Your only hope is in filing the claim with the company that insures the driver for his own car. It is possible that you won't be left holding the bag on this one but good advise is to not let an excluded person drive your vehicle.
yes. plain and simple. you lent the car and then they are a permisable driver. As long as they are not n excluded driver or a resident in your house. It depends, if your policy is a named driver & the driver is not named, your policy will not respond. If your policy is a standard auto policy then yes, your policy will respond.
an excluded driver is someone who IS on the policy but does not drive very often so they are excluded from driving. Alot of parents do this for their kids in college. They show up as having insurance because they are on the policy, but the parents dont get charged an arm and a leg for having them on the policyThat's WrongAn Excluded Driver is SPECIFICALLY NOT on the policy and there is NO INSURANCE if he is driving when involved in an accident. If a member of your family is named as an excluded driver, do not let them drive! In Florida, auto insurance consumers are allowed to "exclude" certain drivers from coverage under their insurance policy. This usually results in a lower premium. It also facilitates purchasing insurance as many insurers will not accept certain types of drivers. The purchaser ("insured") completes a form stating that they wish to exclude a certain driver(s) [sometimes this is part of the application for insurance and sometimes by a separate document] and the insurance company issues an insurance endorsement (additional form to the policy) that states, in essence, we do not provide coverage for the excluded driver. In Florida, an insurer cannot deny coverage for PIP or Property Damage up to $10,000 even if the driver is excluded as these are mandatory coverages.
When ever a driver is excluded on a policy, the insurance company will not pay out on any claims when that person is driving. Hes excluded, he has absolutely no coverage with your insurance. If he has his own policy with a different company, he will be covered. So in general when a driver is excluded, their is no insurance coverage. Its like he was driving without insurance.
Perhaps. Do you have him listed on the policy as required as a driver. If he lives in your household your policy probably requires you to have him listed as a driver or excluded.
No there is no grace period, you bare ether included in a policy or you are excluded.
In OKlahoma all licensed drivers in the household must be listed as a driver or listed as an excluded driver for the policy to be valid. Anything else would result in a fraudilent policy and may get cancelled.
It all depends on the policy. If the unlicensed driver is a named insured and the policy is active then they will be covered. If the unlicensed driver is excluded from coverage then naturally there is no coverage for them. If the unlicensed driver is not a named insured and also not excluded, Then technically they still are not a covered driver, although, coverege may still apply under the owners auto policy depending on the circumstances of any accident and the owners liability under permissive use rules if the vehicle owner allowed an unlicensed driver to operate the vehicle.
